           Summary: Skype crashes XWayland which kills GNOME session
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: XWayland
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Skype updated from Alpha to Beta version 5.0.0.5-1 yesterday and now I get
semi-frequent XWayland crashes when opening or re-opening the skype window.
This kills my entire session. I have run skype alpha for ages without any issue
like this.

See crash log from journal at
https://community.skype.com/t5/Linux/Skype-5-0-for-Linux-Beta-is-here/m-p/4610798/highlight/true#M17800

I know this is a Skype issue but fundamentally a bad client should not crash my
session so there must be a bug in XWayland. I am on up to date Arch Linux
(Wayland version 1.13.0-1).
