It might help others to know my problem and the (easy) solution: on my FC26 installation, xdg-desktop-portal segfaulted every time I tried to open the GNOME Network manager or Bluetooth applet. The applets only opened after an essential time lapse (10-15 sec).

I fixed it installing "systemd-container". The segfault disappeared.
