Seems like some library Tilix is using has changed in GNOME 47 maybe?

I managed to get a debugging backtrace, see gdb-tilix.txt. It looks like Tilix needs to be rebuilt against the new library. I don have any experience in D, so I really cannot help here by making a PR or something...

The good folks at Arch have now managed to get Tilix to compile again against GNOME 47, see the patch here, and this seems to work again for a lot of people. However, in my case (and I have no idea why) it is still core dumping when starting on one PC, but not on the other.

Also it seems that if you start Tilix with a config file to start with a 2x2 grid, it always core dumps on a PC where you can start the vanilly Tilix.

I had no idea what I was doing, but I have backups, so I gave it a try and compile on Debian Trixie/testing.

My Tilix would constantly crash with a similar segfault at libgdk-3.

I installed dub and libgio-2.0-dev-bin, then changed the dub.json:

*** 33,38 ****
--- 33,39 ----
              "name": "default",
              "targetType": "executable",
              "libs-linux": ["X11"],
+             "lflags": ["-lz"],
              "versions": ["StdLoggerDisableTrace"]
          },
          {

See the added -lz flag.

After that it compiled and I was able to use install.sh as root (don't sudo here).

So far it seems stable.

I've tried your trick in linking the binary to lz, but no dice. I can see the new binary is now linked to /usr/lib/libz.so.1 but still crashes when starting.

I'm really baffled here, since I have another laptop on which Tilix is working fine (fair warning: that is running KDE on X11, I'm running GNOME on Wayland). There must be something wrong on my system, but I have absolutely no clue what it is.
