Spacemacs crash when opening file.

[sandersantema]

Description

Spacemacs crashes when opening a file from finder.

Reproduction guide 🪲

• Start Emacs
• Open file x in Spacemacs.
• Open file y from finder.
• File y opens itself in a new tab which looks like the native tabs from Mac OS. Like you see in finder or in safari.
• Spacemacs crashes shortly after.

Observed behaviour: 👀 💔
Spacemacs crashes.

Expected behaviour: ❤️ 😄
Opening of file in a new tab or split window. I don't exactly now what supposed to happen except for the fact that spacemacs isn't supposed to crash.

I hope my bug report is correct and contained sufficient info since this is the first issue I've ever opened. If not please tell me what I should change.

See this link on how to debug segfaults: https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/wiki/Debugging#debugging-segmentation-faults-with-gdb.
You might need to open an issue in the emacs mailing list.

I'm currently to busy to figure out how to debug segmentation faults since I would have to figure it all out, I'm not knowledgeable at all in this area of computing. I hope someone else would be able to do it for me, the bug isn't hard at all to reproduce if it's not a problem specific to my system. I would want to open the issue on the emacs mailing list however again I'm not knowledgeable at all in this subject so my bug report might not be that useful. Anyways thanks for the tips.

@sandersantema you've included the syntax-checking layer twice. Trying removing the second one.

@sandersantema I am sorry to hear that Emacs crashes with segmentation fault. Since there is no one reporting similar symptoms and you are currently busy with other stuff, I am going to close this issue. But let us know if once you have more information. Cheers.
