Hi all,
I have this annoying log message in systemd journal:

I am getting spammed with this. This seems to be related with window resizing but even when not resizing anything I get bombarded with these.
Has anyone seen this? Any ideas on where to look further?

Short answer, yes. Long answer, not exactly. I've observed a number of occasions where my logs will absolutely fill up (to the tune of gigabytes per day) with constant streams of error messages from gnome_shell, but usually they are javascript-related:

The same issue comes up occasionally, but in different forms:

That's about 10 MB of raw log output per minute of use.
Killing gnome-shell and having it respawn usually solves the issue. But it does seem like there is a systemic problem that might warrant a bug report.
However, I've never seen the specific error you mention (typo and all!) because I don't use that package
