Hello everyone, sorry for completely neglecting this thread for a while.
Yes, they do.
I should have mentioned that I’ve never, to my recollection, managed to trigger this using a panel replace command, and I’ve tried a lot of times.
I have moved @Bernie’s thread here to centralize posts about this issue.
@Wimpy, @monsta, since one other person has been able to reproduce, can you guys maybe provide further avenues of investigation?
The key points are:
- Random amount (but usually a lot) of panel applets crashing on login
- Crashes seem more regular after a reboot than a logout, but they still happen in both cases.
- Only seems to happen with a transparent background for the panel.
- The crashes don’t prevent correct respawn of the applets once you click on reload, so while blocking to show this error might be good from a developer’s perspective, it’s definitively not from a standard user’s perspectives.
Edit: Note, I’m pretty sure the following is (one of) the automatically generated bug report for this bug, but I’m unable to access the detailed report:
