Gnome Settings Sharing Panel crashes after Updating to Gnome 42 (220323)

On our Tumbleweed Installation (Parallels Version 17.1.2, aarm64) we had gnome sharing for VNC and SSH enabled. Before the 220323 update, running Gnome 40, the system was working without (known) problems.

After the update to Gnome 41 in Tumbleweed 220323 Gnome Settings (gnome-control-center) are crashing when selecting the sharing pane. All other panes are working flawless.

❯ gnome-control-center
libEGL warning: pci id for fd 8: 1ab8:0010, driver (null)

pci id for fd 9: 1ab8:0010, driver (null)
libGL error: pci id for fd 8: 1ab8:0010, driver (null)
pci id for fd 9: 1ab8:0010, driver (null)
[1] 8567 segmentation fault (core dumped) gnome-control-center

From now on gnome-control-center crashes during startup until you reset “/org/gnome/control-center/last-panel” with dconf.

Any ideas?

I can confirm it except this is GNOME 42, not 41. Care to open bug report?

We just verified the problem on an installation from scratch. Booting the openSUSE-Tumbleweed-NET-aarch64-Snapshot20220323-Media.iso installer in a new created VM. After installation we log in and open Gnome Settings. Navigation to the sharing panel crashes the system immediately.

The crash happens when You update to Gnome 42! Sorry for the typo…

Hi
To get off the seg-faulting sharing, start with an item from the list, at least get it running again.


gnome-control-center applications

There’s more than one way to skin a cat …

gsettings reset org.gnome.Settings last-panel

Thank you! I´m also facing the same problem, and I couldn´t start the configuration again with the error:

X@localhost:~> gnome-control-center
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

But now I can open it again after running your command!
