Bug#1105157: gnome-shell: segmentation fault when launching a yuzu game
From Andrea Pappacoda@21:1/5 to All on Mon May 12 15:00:01 2025
Package: gnome-shell
Version: 48.1-1
Severity: normal
Affects: yuzu
Hi!
gnome-shell is currently segfaulting when launching games using the yuzu emulator. This only happens under a Wayland session, and when using's
Qt's wayland platform plugin (i.e. QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland). This does
not happen when running the program forcing Xwayland usage (i.e. QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb).
This is reproducible using yuzu's autopkgtest "gpu_console.nro" homebrew
test program. Just uncompress the debian/tests/gpu_console.nro.xz file
and open it in yuzu with CTRL-O.
I'm pretty sure this is a recent regression, as I've been using the
emulator on Debian Testing for a while. I think this might also affect
other Qt packages, as it doesn't happen when using the SDL backend
(yuzu-cmd).
