Bug Description

Creating a Gio.DesktopAppInfo for a desktopfile, then launching with an app_launch context freezes GJS. Launching with context set to null works. There is no debug information on the console.

Using Gtk4

Here is the relevant code-

let desktopFile = Gio.DesktopAppInfo.new('gnome-background-panel.desktop');
const context = Gdk.Display.get_default().get_app_launch_context();
context.set_timestamp(Gdk.CURRENT_TIME);
// Fix me, context in the following causes a crash;
desktopFile.launch([], context)
