Does it work if you login to a clean user account and try to start guake from there?
EDIT: or not. The bug occurs after I have closed Guake and restarted it with an existent ~/.config/guake folder. If the folder does not exist, Guake 3.7 works fine.
I CANNOT reproduce your crash.
Seems like vte3 acknowledges and has isolated a re-entrancy bug calling a function with a null pointer. Hopefully they'll figure out a fix very soon.
The fix was released as vte3 0.62.1 and entered [extra] 31 hours ago. Can you verify the problem is solved?
