Research direction
Run the ./librepods executable on Linux Mint and reproduce the crash by selecting Settings or Open from the tray icon's left-click menu. Trace those menu actions and use the reported segmentation fault or generated core to identify the failing path. Done means both windows open without crashing while the existing right-click menu and hover behavior still work.
