[Workrave-user] Seg fault

[Graham Hay]

Hi,

Long time user, first time caller. I updated to the latest gnome (should
have known better), and now I'm getting a seg fault:

$ workrave
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I'm running Arch, with their latest version of workrave
<https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/workrave/>. I'm happy
to help investigate, if that's of any use, otherwise I'll just rollback to
an older version of gnome.

My wrists hurt already :(

Thanks,

Graham

Hi,
I installed Arch including Gnome 3.22.1 and Workrave.
Workrave seems to run fine for me when using Gnome Shell.

Do you have more information on how to reproduce the set fault ?
Any additional packages I have to install?

Note that I selected “GNOME on Xorg” in the login screen.
Plain “GNOME” doesn’t work for me.
I expect this is Gnome on Wayland, which isn’t supported on my virtualisation platform (Parallels Desktop).
Also, Workrave currently does not support Wayland.

And you are not the only one: https://issues.workrave.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1256 <https://issues.workrave.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1256>

Kind regards,
Rob
