The bug is with OpenShot.

OpenShot does not start because of Problem X, it means that OpenShot
should do its best to resolve Problem X.

$ openshot

   OpenShot (version 1.3.0)

**
Gtk:ERROR:/build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.22.0/gtk/gtkrecentmanager.c:1942:get_icon_fallback: assertion failed: (retval != NULL)
Aborted

It does not matter that the fault is in gtkrecentmanager.c. OpenShot
should be able to adapt. It is likely there is a check you can do just
before calling get_icon_fallback and avoid that call, if it is not
completely necessary.

Otherwise, you have potentially a great number of people who cannot use
the software. Think about it from the perspective of an end-user, such
as me.

1. Install OpenShot using PPA.
2. Run OpenShot (works fine).
3. Start editing a video.
4. Save the video (OpenShot crashes; shows that it saved the recovery file).
5. Start OpenShot.
6. OpenShot crashes.

Since OpenShot started the first time, it aught to start the second
time. This is a bug with OpenShot.
