Bug#635174: gjs: Version 1.29.0-1 breaks gnome-shell startup

[Christian von Kietzell]

Package: gjs
Version: 0.7.14-1
Severity: important

Upgrading to version 1.29.0-1 makes gnome-shell segfault at startup. I'm not
sure GJs is really the culprit but downgrading to 0.7.14-1 makes the problem go
away, so I'm reporting it against this package. Please reassign if that's not
correct.

The error in syslog says the following:

If there's anything I can do to help diagnose the problem I'd be more than
willing to do that.


Kind regards,
  Chris
