Created attachment 1520165 [details] coredumpctl debug output with trace of all threads of gnome-control-center crash Description of problem: When I've selected Privacy in system-config-abrt in Plasma 5.14.4, the privacy settings in gnome-control-center weren't shown. The following failed assertion was shown in konsole: ERROR:../shell/cc-shell-model.c:458:cc_shell_model_set_panel_visibility: assertion failed: (valid) coredumpctl showed that gnome-control-center aborted. The trace of the crashing thread had the failed assertion in #4 using coredumpctl debug and gdb.

all threads. The gnome-control-center crash appeared using journalctl -b, but it wasn't shown in gnome-abrt. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): abrt-0:2.11.1-2.fc29.i686 gnome-control-center-0:3.30.2-1.fc29.i686 plasma-desktop-0:5.14.4-2.fc29.i686 How reproducible: gnome-control-center crashed due to the failed assertion on each of 5 times I tried the steps below in Plasma. Steps to Reproduce: 1. system-config-abrt & ( in konsole in Plasma ) 2. Click Privacy 3. close system-config-abrt 4. coredumpctl 5. coredumpctl debug 6. journalctl -b Actual results: When clicking on Privacy in system-config-abrt in Plasma, gnome-control-center aborted. Expected results: The Privacy settings are shown correctly. Additional info: When I ran system-config-abrt in gnome and clicked Privacy, gnome-control-center started correctly with the Privacy screen shown. The crash of gnome-control-center might be related to a desktop environment other than gnome being used.
We only launch gnome-privacy-panel.desktop, so likely this is gnome-control-center.
OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity; is in /usr/share/applications/gnome-privacy-panel.desktop . gnome-control-center might only be intended to be run in gnome or unity. When I changed that to OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity;KDE; and I ran the steps above in Plasma, the same failed assertion and crash of gnome-control-center happened. When I ran gnome-control-center itself in Plasma, the same crash happened. Bug 1645855 described the same failed assertion and crash of gnome-control-center when run in Plasma and Xfce. The failed assertion in cc_shell_model_set_panel_visibility at cc-shell-model.c:458 appears to be related to no panel of gnome-control-center being shown so the visibility of the panel couldn't be set. /* If we don't find any panel with the given id, we'll iterate until * valid == FALSE, so we can use this variable to determine if the * panel was found or not. It is a programming error to try to set * the visibility of a non-existant panel. */ g_assert (valid); https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/blob/gnome-3-30/shell/cc-shell-model.c Three possible ways to address the crash might be: 1. gnome-control-center could be updated so that it runs correctly in Plasma or other desktop environments. 2. The abrt privacy settings could be made configurable directly within system-config-abrt which would make it compatible with the various desktop environments. 3. system-config-abrt could detect which desktop environment is running and then run a specific program for each environment's privacy settings.
Looks like you want to make some noise upstream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/248.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 29 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 29 on 2019-11-26. 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 '29'. 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 29 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.
