Random crashes when spawning new window using "xfce4-terminal" command
I use i3wm with xfce4-terminal as my terminal. I spawn terminal windows by executing the command xfce4-terminal (using a hotkey), which either launches a new instance, if xfce4-terminal isn't already running, or spawns a new window in the existing instance. I create and close lots of terminal windows over the day. But every once in a while, when I want to spawn a new window I just get brief flash for a fraction of a second, and then all terminal windows close.
Here is a list of the most recent crashes:
