Can you reproduce this bug with newer version of Ubuntu MATE?

Hi @Norbert,

Running now Ubuntu-MATE 20.04 :
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=20.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=focal
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS"

I havent used mate-dock-applet in years, bet let's test:
Just now I installed mate-dock-applet:

Package: mate-dock-applet
Version: 20.04.0-1
Priority: extra
Section: universe/utils
Origin: Ubuntu
Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <email address hidden>
Original-Maintainer: Debian+Ubuntu Debian MATE Packaging Team <email address hidden>

Give me a few days so i can abuse the hell out of it in the meantime. ;-)

If it crashes, I'll report immediately.

Is there anything you would like me to do immediately after it crashes ?
(like sending logs, running apport, running other tools)

If it hasn't crashed by friday, I'll let you know immediately.

Hi @Norbert,

Tested it heavily on these configurations:
{
  AMD Ryzen 5 + RX570 (desktop)
  Thinkpad T420 i5 (laptop)
  AMD A4 (laptop)
  intel N4200 SOC (laptop)
  AMD Turion x2 on NV2 chipset (laptop)
  intel J4205 SOC (mini ITX mediacenter)
}
All are running up to date ubunutu-MATE 20.04 LTS

I couldn't get it to crash on any of them :-)
no really, it is rock-solid. More than it ever was.

Seems to me that this bug can be closed.

Thanks, @Thom.
