Created attachment 1441521 [details] Leafpad and Lxterminal coredumps Description of problem: After upgrade to Fedora 28 from Fedora 27 some apps periodically crash with the same error: [xcb] Unknown sequence number while processing queue [xcb] Most likely this is a multi-threaded client and XInitThreads has not been called [xcb] Aborting, sorry about that. pidgin: xcb_io.c:259: poll_for_event: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost' failed. Aborted (core dumped) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): The applications that aborted with this error: pidgin, lxterminal, leafpad, audacious, gimp, firefox. The problem appeared immediately after the update to F28 about a month ago, is still actual after full updates of whole of the system (every 5 day). How reproducible: There are no clear steps to reproduce. Crash occurs randomly when using the graphical interface in different situations, usually after the mouse actions. After restarting application, the same actions do not cause crashing. Actual results: Graphical applications crashes with active use of the system several times a day randomly. Expected results: In F27 all the same GUI-applications worked stably for weeks without any crashes. Additional info: Attached Leafpad and Lxterminal coredumps of last days (because it have the smallest size).

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.
