Bug: Startup Crash on Ubuntu 24.10 with 6000.0.30f1

As posted in the title, updating to Unity 6000.0.30f1 will cause the editor to crash on loading a project or creating a new one.

Workaround: Downgrade to 6000.0.27f1, which doesn’t have that issue.

Reported as IN-90819.

I will investigate further and add any Infos about workarounds.

Editor log stops at:

The selected window backend is (null)

same problem. and also 6000.1.0.a7,

back to 6000.0.25f1…

true, however, it’s hard to believe that a software that can’t even start up properly would be released. Hope it doesn’t introduce more bugs… In 2024, Unity is still not very friendly to Linux. :face_exhaling:
