This bug was fixed in the package gnome-control-center -
1:3.26.1-0ubuntu5
---------------
gnome-control-center (1:3.26.1-0ubuntu5) artful; urgency=medium
* debian/patches/71_ubuntu_dock_settings.patch:
- tentatively fix crashes when panel is disposed (LP: #1725219)
* debian/patches/series, enable ubuntu-legacy-notifications.patch:
- Ubuntu ships compatibility names for .desktop that got renamed
upstream, those use NoDisplay but the panel doesn't respect that key,
skip known buggy entries for file-roller and nautilus (LP: #1716267)

Bug description:
[ Impact ]
* This is a popular crash when using the Dock settings in gnome control
center. The crash is harmless apart from closing g-c-c as the settings are
applied, but triggers apport.
[ Test case ]
* This is hard to reproduce, as it means the stracktrace seems to imply that
you go to the Dock panel, then another one, and trigger one of the dock
callback signals like pluging/unplugging a monitor.
[ Regression potential ]
* We change one signal connection by another one which automatically
disconnect. So, the callback may not work at all (which it doesn't, tested), or
may continue to crash (unlikely, it's a standard glib function).
