A day ago, my system froze when I was running Android Studio. After almost half an hour, Gnome restarted and things started working again.
While trying to figure out why this might have happened and what I can do to stop this happening, I found about coredumpctl
.
This is the output of coredumpctl
command: (I disable core dumps, thinking that it might be slowing down the OS in case of crash)

So, my questions are:
- what can I do so that this does not happen again and,
- where should I report these issues – to Flatpak team (in case of the software packages installed as Flatpak, in this case, Android Studio and Geary) or to maintainers of the respective software?
