Subject: gpaste-client --version dies with a sigsegv

this pretty much tells it all:

$ guix shell gpaste
$ gpaste-client --version

(/gnu/store/7xj6mjvd00f83bmscn6ya1zwd0wi67gf-profile/bin/gpaste-client:27755): GPaste-CRITICAL **: 10:49:21.373: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.GPaste: Process org.gnome.GPaste received signal 11

i tried to debug it, but it happens in a new thread, and i failed to obtain a backtrace by simply starting it in gdb.

the actual symptom is that the gpaste shell extension crashes the gnome shell while logging in, and upon the next login all gnome shell extensions are disabled. enabling them immediately crashes the entire gnome shell.

“Being true to yourself means living in truth with each person in your life. It means refusing to say or do something that you don’t believe is right. Living in truth with other people means that you refuse to stay in any situation where you are unhappy with the behavior of another person. You refuse to tolerate it. You refuse to compromise.”
