Q. Fix for: systemd[1]: colord.service: Failed with result 'core-dump'
Q. These lines are logged together:
systemd[1]: colord.service: Main process exited, code=dumped, status=11/SEGV
systemd[1]: colord.service: Failed with result 'core-dump'.
When I manually restarted it, it stayed running so that made me confident that I could
formalize that.
I created file /etc/systemd/system/colord.service.d/override.conf
(which is the proper place for local .service file changes)
And entered:
[Service]
# Since it is crashing
Restart=always
RestartSec=30
Then you need to run:
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart colord
That was good enough to bandaid the problem.
