Title:
gnome-panel crashes with empty applications.menu
Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
having a blank applications.menu in ~/.config/menus causes gnome-panel
to segfault.
I expect this not to happen, for it to fail silently or just with a
log note, not crash my entire panel.
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
