    Hello folks, 

    I'm sorry that 1Password for Linux is crashing when you first first boot your device. This is a known issue that our development team is investigating and hopes to fix in a future update to 1Password. While I don't have a timeline on when a fix will be released, the fix will be noted in our release notes as soon as it is available. 

    As noted in this thread, the issue should only affect the first launch after boot and subsequent launches of the 1Password app should work normally. If you're seeing different behaviour then please reach out to support@1Password.com so that we can dig deeper.

    -Dave

I can also say that this problem appears to have been fixed in the last few days, after the upgrade from 1password 8.12.0 to 8.12.2.

I am running on Arch Linux with 1password installed from the AUR.

I was experiencing this crash report on startup reliably - probably 90% of the time. However, in my reboots over the last few days it is no longer occurring.

I believe this is likely the upgrade that fixed it:

Thanks to the 1password devs for whatever they did to fix it... although it doesn't seem to be mentioned at all in the release notes here:

Sounds good. Maybe 1P_Dave​ can give an official statement if the bug should be fixed or not?
