Last night's update hides menu bar for good

Hello!

It seems that last night’s update hides the menu bar on top in few seconds of login and would not come back anymore.

Could someone fix this? Thanks.

Oh no!

What happens when you open a terminal and start waybar manually?

If you pgrep waybar do you still see it running?

I can reproduce this. But the exact problem is that waybar segfaults on any click of a tray icon. Pretty bad.

Can you run gdb again with DEBUGINFOD_URLS="https://debuginfod.debian.net" set? That will automatically download all relevant debugging symbols from debuginfod.d.n. Then you should probably post your backtrace as a new bug against gtk+3.0 which had a new upload two days ago. There was no waybar upload for two weeks.

Thanks, bug submitted. Now trackable: #1079292 - libgtk-3-0t64: segfault in gdk_window_get_toplevel() crashes waybar when clicking any tray icon - Debian Bug report logs

For those following this thread, as of now there’s a known-good version of GTK in the MNT APT repo so that waybar is working again.
