Hello Nenad Cvetkovic, I tried to have a look at your core file. It shows a crash with following backtrace [1]. The reason seems to be an invalid function pointer in variable "prepare".
The upstream issue in [2] shows a similar backtrace, but I am not sure if they are related about what is causing it. Investigation with a core file needs the same installed package version, therefore the inspection at the host creating the core has less chances for discrepancies. Therefore, if you have gdb installed, you should be able to generate a backtrace on your system too by e.g.: coredumpctl list coredumpctl gdb <PID> bt This gets normally improved by installing the dbgsym packages or setting the environment DEBUGINFOD_URLS, both and more described in [3]. Therefore the question, is there a reason for what looks like local rebuilt packages libenchant1c2a and libxml2 due to the "~1.gbp73138d" version postfix? Kind regards, Bernhard [1] Core was generated by `/usr/bin/gedit --gapplication-service'. Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. #0 0x00000000007f198f in ??
