User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:95.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/95.0

Steps to reproduce:

Ran nightly as my browser.

Actual results:

At shutdown it spews a large amount of configuration data.

Expected results:

Relatively clean shutdown.

I tried to bisect this with mozregression, but it does not reproduce the error. Maybe it has to do with my profile settings? It only started happening in the last few days, so something changed that is causing it.

The same spew happens with a new user. I've been thinking about why mozregression didn't capture this, and maybe it is because I am starting nightly from a terminal. When I close it, the messages appear in the terminal so I can see them. If I was starting it with a gui, it might be that the messages would just be sent to /dev/null [ignored]. So, when testing this, be sure to start nightly from a command line in a terminal.

I install the downloaded tar ball in /usr/local, and start it from there instead of the system firefox, which is 93 at this point.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Gtk' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: Untriaged → Widget: Gtk
Product: Firefox → Core
