Apparently this is caused by a rogue Gnome Shell extension. Running
gnome-shell inside a gdb session reveals the following BT after the
crash:

The clue is in the invocations inside of libjs which eventually lead to
the g_assertion invocation failing and the subsequent SIGBABRT. After a
little bit of try and error, it turns out that disabling the extension
Topicons Plus causes the issue to disappear.
Full issue tracker is on Github: https://github.com/phocean/TopIcons-
plus/issues/88.

Title:
Amarok causes gnome-shell to crash
Status in amarok package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
The subject says it all: when quitting Amarok, the surrounding gnome-
shell is restarted.
Apparently, something sends a SIGABRT to the shell:

Amarok seems to end normally as --debug tells me but invoking it from the
command line produces the same effect as from within the shell: it restarts.
More than happy to send more info as required.
