I cannot find report of such a bug on the net, so I am expecting this to be a packaging bug, but really I have no idea...

Hi Olivier,

Can you please file this bug upstream, for either GNOME Shell or Qt?

I have experienced a similar issue a couple of years ago with X11 (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736719), however yours seems to be a different one.

I will. I see now that qt5 on Wayland also crashes, etc. I thought Wayland
was supported...

Wayland is supported, although maybe we (the maintainers in Ubuntu) do not have much time to test it.

For the crash, please either report it via apport, or obtain the stack trace manually with the dbgsym packages installed and attach it to a new bug.
