[gentoo-user] segfault in gedit / glib

[Adam Carter]

System is ~amd64. If i try to open a text file in gnome via double click, i
get;
$ journalctl -b | grep segf
Dec 29 12:17:32 phat kernel: gedit[1177]: segfault at 7f7c0d36e880 ip
00007f7c2550ba74 sp 00007fff66834850 error 4 in
libglib-2.0.so.0.5200.3[7f7c254c0000+114000]

The following work;
Open gedit first, then open the file
Use right click -> Open With Other Application and chose LibreOffice writer.

I've rebuild glib and gedit. Are there any clues on the issue in this trace?

$ strace gedit <filename>
