this was caused by a developer branch. And was fixed before the release.

[Renato Araujo Oliveira Filho (renatofilho)]

Reopening the bug since this still causing unity8 crash even using only packages from overlay.

this only happen on unity8 does not happen on unity7 (launching unity8 ubuntu-system-settings)

One backtrace, slightly confusing: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23874652/

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package qtmir - 0.5.1+17.04.20170320.1-0ubuntu1

---------------
qtmir (0.5.1+17.04.20170320.1-0ubuntu1) zesty; urgency=medium

  [ Alan Griffiths ]
  * Reduce dependencies on mirserver by reworking
    ../Application/mirbuffersgtexture.cpp and
    ../Application/surfacemanager.cpp

  [ Andreas Pokorny ]
  * Attach MirInputDeviceId and the MirCookie to input events (LP:
    #1536279, #1668692)

  [ Daniel d'Andrada ]
  * Implement MirSurface::allowClientResize (LP: #1670390)

  [ Gerry Boland ]
  * Stop MirSurface deleting itself, ensure SurfaceManager alone manages
    MirSurface lifetimes. Add SurfaceManager test suite. (LP: #1655644)
  * Extend timeouts when running under valgrind

  [ Albert Astals Cid, Gerry Boland ]
  * Check for find() result not being null before using it
