How reproducible is this? If you reboot your computer and try repeatedly
locking your screen, does the same thing happen again?
Yes, it happens even if I reboot. This started happening when I went
from 2.26 to 2.28. Since the crash is related to JS, I started to
disable extensions. Last week, it seemed that disabling the "gpaste"
extension solved it. However, today I updated, rebooted, and it seems
that now that it still happens until I disable the "removable drive
menu" extension.
So, I opened dconf-editor and saw that for some reason
/org/gnome/shell/disable-extension-version-validation was active, and
that was the default value. I have set it to false, emptied the contents
of /org/gnome/shell/enabled-extensions, and enabled only gpaste and
"removable drive menu" through the "tweaks" application. After this, I
can lock the screen with no trouble.
Since activating and deactivating extensions makes the problem go away,
I will keep you posted about whether this is finally stable.
Is there anything that looks relevant in the systemd journal or syslog
at around the time of the crash?
Not really. It only happens when I attempt to lock the screen.
Did you previously run a version of gnome-shell that did not have this bug?
If you did, what packages did you upgrade around the time it started
happening? (/var/log/apt/history.log* might be useful)
Do you have any GNOME Shell extensions enabled?
I notice that the backtrace you provided involves libnm, the NetworkManager
client library. Is there anything unusual about your networking that might
explain why you see this crash when other people don't?
I have an ethernet connection, a wifi connection and an OpenVPN bridge
using the tap interface.
I uploaded new versions of gnome-shell, mutter and gjs earlier today
(gnome-shell 3.28.2, mutter 3.28.2 and gjs 1.52.3-2). Please could you
try with those when they become available, and report back with whether
this bug is still visible in those versions?
