Gnome terminal 3.22 not starting

Question

I just updated my arch linux to gnome 3.22 and it broke many things. Most annoying is that gnome-terminal won't start. I checked journalctl and found that :

oct. 18 15:11:05 jarvis dbus-daemon[727]: Successfully activated service 'org.gnome.Terminal'
oct. 18 15:11:05 jarvis systemd[711]: Started GNOME Terminal Server.

oct. 18 15:11:06 jarvis systemd-coredump[1593]: Process 1569 (gnome-terminal-) of user 1000 dumped core.

            Stack trace of thread 1569:
            #0  0x00007f21f3389ff1 n/a (libglib-2.0.so.0)
            #1  0x00007f21f338c731 g_log_writer_default (libglib-2.0.so.0)
            #2  0x00007f21f338ab8c g_log_structured_array (libglib-2.0.so.0)
    ...

Going on and on on different libc.so.6 calls.

I can't find how to fix this. Does any one have an idea of what happened ? and of what I should do ?

Try switch login screen to use Xorg ,

edit file: /etc/gdm/custom.conf and uncomment WaylandEnable=false :

[daemon]
# Uncoment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
# WaylandEnable=false
