That made it. I upgraded gnome-shell to unstable version and the
problem is gone.

Are you using any GNOME Shell extensions?

If you are, does this problem persist if you disable them?

Does this problem persist if you upgrade gnome-shell, mutter and gjs
to the versions in unstable? (These versions should have migrated to
testing a while ago, but are being held up by uninstallability on s390x;
the release team assure me that they intend to get these versions into
buster before the release.)

Bug#922218: gnome-shell fills up logs with an stack trace

2019-02-13 Thread Sergio Villar
Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.30.1-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Dear Maintainer,

gnome-shell is making my system unusable by completelly filling up the /var 
partition due to the errors it spits into several log files like syslog, 
user.log and messages. All three of them are Gigabytes of size. The issue that 
is reported by gnome-shell (hundreds of times per second!) is the 
following:

I'm setting a critical severity because as you might imagine, once the var 
partition is full several unrelated software starts to break. Also for 
non technical users rebooting wouldn't be a solution as the logs will persist.
