Ok, I can reproduce this now. Some findings: I seems to only happen when searching for "xt" (xterm), then searching something in the "S" section and when the search result gives only one result within that section after the second letter. E.g. for me it crashes when searching for "sa" (sakura), "su" (sudoku) and "sn" (screenshot) but not with anything else in the "S" section.
Also, the "S" section is the largest one for me. I could not find any other section where it happens. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1658190 Title: Searching rapidly with the app drawer causes Unity 8 to crash Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Latest zesty unity8 8.15+17.04.20170110.4-0ubuntu1 Searching rapidly for apps in the app drawer is causing a crash for me. I have quite a few applications (including libertine apps) available. To reproduce: 1. Open app drawer 2. Enter a few characters to match an app 3. Clear searchbar with backspaces 4. Goto step 2 (switching characters from time to time) This crashes Unity 8 for me sometimes as quickly as 20 searches, but other times it takes up to 50 searches.
