Ubuntu 19.10
gnome-control-center:
  Installed: 1:3.34.1-1ubuntu2

I encounter a force-clock / segfault in gnome-control-center when trying to remove nameless Search Locations. These are found at Settings > Search > Search Locations > Other. (See attached screenshot.) These nameless search locations have existed since conducting a clean install of Ubuntu 19.10 and I've been unable to remove them with the GUI.

If it helps, here is the syslog data generated when I attempt to delete a nameless search location.
 All gnome-control-center windows immediately close.
