I just got this on fully patched Ubuntu 21.10 (Kernel: 5.13.0-20-generic x86_64, Gnome Shell package: 40.5-1ubuntu2, Gnome version 40.4.0, Windowing System: Wayland, AMD A6 5400k processor with built-in Radeon graphics)
I was watching a movie on VLC and noticed that performance was a bit slow so I clicked the X to close the window. The window didn't disappear- It froze. SSHing in, I found systemd-journald was taking up all the CPU and an 11 GB /var/log/messages spamming with that same message. I ended up just rebooting the machine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1908429 Title: gnome-shell fills syslog: Attempting to run a JS callback during garbage collection. This is most likely caused by destroying a Clutter actor or GTK widget with ::destroy signal connected, or using the destroy(), dispose(), or remove() vfuncs. Because it would crash the application, it has been blocked. The offending callback was SourceFunc().
