Did you check and try http://t-sato.in.coocan.jp/xvkbd/faq.html ?

Comment 3 mastaiza 2018-03-07 15:34:40 UTC
I have not found similar problems

Comment 4 Raphael Groner 2018-03-09 06:10:11 UTC
To be fully clear, what concrete package are we talking about? xvfb or xvkbd (latter as in comment #0).

Maybe we hit a recent bug with gcc.
See https://da.gd/YJVwk ("GCC 8 ABI change on x86_64")

In a debian bug, they assume the crash happens due to failed notification. Or it is an i18n issue as the cause stated for raspbian, or maybe something else ...
