Subject: bug#30591: Vinagre segmentation fault - and gdb cannot find symbols?

Hi,

Recently, I've noticed that Vinagre segfaults when I initiate a
connection.  To reproduce, try doing the following:

1) Install Vinagre.
2) Try to connect to a remote host.
3) Vinagre displays a black screen, and about 10-20 seconds later, it
crashes.

I've obtained a core dump, but it seems I can't get debug symbols from
it.  I'm using a custom version that adds a "debug" output, and my
~/.gdbinit is set up according to what Guix recommends in its manual
((guix) Installing Debugging Files).  What do I need to do to get gdb to
give me useful information?

Example debugging session follows:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[0] marusich@garuda.local:~/debug-vinagre
$ cat ~/.gdbinit 
# Tell GDB where to look for separate debugging files.
set debug-file-directory ~/.guix-profile/lib/debug
# Let GDB auto-load any files it needs.
set auto-load safe-path /

I'm pretty new to debugging C programs in gdb, so if I'm making any
obvious mistakes, I'd really appreciate it if you'd let me know!

Thank you,
