Details

Description:
Some applications like helvum and gnome-extensions-app are resulting in a core dumping. Not sure if it's related to xorg, but it doesn't happen on wayland.


Additional info:
* package version(s)
helvum 0.3.4-1
xorg-server 21.1.3-6
gnome-shell 1:41.5-1
* config and/or log files etc.
journalctl traces attached

* link to upstream bug report, if any

Steps to reproduce:
Try to run on command line:

$ gnome-extensions-app
/usr/bin/gnome-extensions-app: line 2: 7886 Segmentation fault (core dumped) /usr/bin/gjs /usr/share/gnome-shell/org.gnome.Extensions "$@"

$ helvum
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Looks like it's the same root cause as https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/74282?project=1&string=gnome-shell

Setting GSK_RENDERER=cairo also works for me
