I tried to run "gedit" in "gnome-terminal". I am using "Fedora 24 (Rawhide)" and "gedit-3.17.92-1.fc24.x86_64". The third critical error below is showing every time when I am trying to display this blank frame.

[admin@localhost ~]$ gedit

(gedit:27440): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_param_spec_internal: assertion '!(flags & G_PARAM_STATIC_NAME) || is_canonical (name)' failed

(gedit:27440): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_class_install_properties: assertion 'pspec != NULL' failed

(gedit:27440): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_new_valist: object class 'GeditCloseConfirmationDialog' has no property named 'unsaved_documents'

Comment 2 Daniel Stone 2015-09-21 13:02:34 UTC
Can confirm on F23:
(gedit:11147): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_param_spec_internal: assertion '!(flags & G_PARAM_STATIC_NAME) || is_canonical (name)' failed

(gedit:11147): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_class_install_properties: assertion 'pspec != NULL' failed

(gedit:11147): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_new_valist: object class 'GeditCloseConfirmationDialog' has no property named 'unsaved_documents'

This actually makes it impossible to close GEdit with saving, short of killing it from a terminal.

gedit-3.17.92-1.fc23.x86_64

Comment 3 Ilja Sekler 2015-09-23 06:07:21 UTC
This is now fixed upstream https://git.gnome.org/browse/gedit/commit/?id=466722bbe4be1f516166bd54e6726369879a8464 and the fix is in 3.18.

Meanwhile, in F23

# dnf downgrade gedit

alleviates discomfort downgrading gedit to 3.17.90-1.fc23.x86_64 while waiting for 3.18 to land.

Comment 4 Onuralp SEZER 2015-09-23 12:59:50 UTC
I did downgrade for F23 yes ıt's working fine. I'll follow the update when we get fix I can post it here or who make comment first. 

Thank you

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-24 12:32:38 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2016-12-20 14:40:35 UTC
Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
