The bug is with OpenShot. OpenShot does not start because of Problem X, it means that OpenShot should do its best to resolve Problem X.
$ openshot -------------------------------- OpenShot (version 1.3.0) -------------------------------- state saved ** Gtk:ERROR:/build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.22.0/gtk/gtkrecentmanager.c:1942:get_icon_fallback: assertion failed: (retval != NULL) Aborted It does not matter that the fault is in gtkrecentmanager.c. OpenShot should be able to adapt. It is likely there is a check you can do just before calling get_icon_fallback and avoid that call, if it is not completely necessary. Otherwise, you have potentially a great number of people who cannot use the software. Think about it from the perspective of an end-user, such as me. 1. Install OpenShot using PPA. 2. Run OpenShot (works fine). 3. Start editing a video. 4. Save the video (OpenShot crashes; shows that it saved the recovery file). 5. Start OpenShot. 6. OpenShot crashes. Since OpenShot started the first time, it aught to start the second time.
