This is just telling us that the network process crashed. Do you have a backtrace for the network process crash?
(In reply to Michael Catanzaro from comment #2) > This is just telling us that the network process crashed. Do you have a > backtrace for the network process crash? I already talked about that with Carlos. There was no network process crash involved (at nothing showed up in coredumpctl)
Drat, then it's going to be quite hard to debug, because we don't have any close why the network process is quitting.
I don't know what xreader is, I've tried with evince browser plugin and I can't reproduce the crash.
Looks like xreader does not exist in Debian.
(In reply to Michael Catanzaro from comment #6) > Looks like xreader does not exist in Debian. It's an evince fork: https://github.com/linuxmint/xreader
There's also: https://github.com/mate-desktop/atril Not sure why it was so important to have two different forks, but OK....
I'm going to dup this against bug #183348, it's clearly the same issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 183348 ***
