Distribution (run cat /etc/os-release):
Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS

Related Application and/or Package Version (run apt policy $PACKAGE NAME):
gnome-control-center
1:41.4-1ubuntu12pop1165307561122.04~64c84a2

Issue/Bug Description:
App crashes when trying to log into online accounts when it's web pages (so Google, Microsoft, Flickr or Foursquare)
Only when using Wayland. It works perfectly fine on X11

Steps to reproduce (if you know):

  1. Use Wayland
  2. Try to log into online accounts mentioned above

Expected behavior:
Let the web page load correctly, so I can actually log in.

Other Notes:
I tried to do some debbuging, I first reported the issue in gnome-control-center issue tracker here :
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues/1945
they told me to check if it really was an upstream issue.
It looks like the problem come from the webkit library. You can find more info on the bug report above. Tell me if you need any additional info.

I was testing with the graphical protocols and I have switched to Wayland. The computer worked just fine until I have noticed I could not read my emails on my Google account using Geary and the online accounts that I have added to Gnome had an orange triangle beside them. I have removed them, then I have tried to add them back, but the settings application crashed (and subsequent attempts kept crashing the application). Eventually, I have found this issue and the issue #1945 on Gnome's Gitlab.
The computer is an Acer laptop with an Intel i5-6300HQ CPU, Intel HD Graphics 530 GPU and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M GPU.
I have the following packages:

  • NVIDIA drivers 525.105.17-1pop0~1681323337~22.04~22e0810 (I have installed all the required DEB packages)
  • gnome-shell 42.5-0ubuntu1pop1~1675984688~22.04~f574f54
  • gnome-control-center 41.4-1ubuntu12pop1~1653075611~22.04~64c84a2
  • gnome-online-accounts 3.44.0-1ubuntu1pop1~1677167546~22.04~5d98aa0
  • libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 2.38.5-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

I would provide logs, but I am not familiar with getting the logs of the Gnome applications. Do you know how to get them?

I have found a workaround. Launching gnome-control-center using the WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE environment variable set to 1 makes it continue its execution. You can use the following command line to launch gnome-control-center:

WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 gnome-control-center

I've found the idea here: NixOS/nixpkgs#169201

It seems not specific to Wayland. I'm on Xorg and have the same issue.
