Hi, everybody,
I'm not sure it is modemmanager's fault here, but as soon as I try to insert an infrared (pretty standard) dongle I see in dmesg that modemmanager crashes with a segfault.

Ubuntu (Mate) 16.04 on x86-64,
modemmanager version 1.4.12-1ubuntu1 installed

The dongle is:
[lsusb] Bus 001 Device 006: ID 066f:4200 SigmaTel, Inc. STIr4200 IrDA Bridge

and when inserting it I see
[dmesg]
[  795.674472] usb 1-1.2: new full-speed USB device number 6 using ehci-pci
[  795.767970] usb 1-1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=066f, idProduct=4200
[  795.767978] usb 1-1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0

[  795.769263] stir4200 1-1.2:1.0: IrDA: Registered SigmaTel device irda0
[  795.809763] ModemManager[3105]: segfault at 0 ip 0000000000431ab3 sp 00007ffd4c29bf40 error 4 in ModemManager[400000+103000]


(this happens on a Dell Latitude E6330, in case it is relevant)

Thank you for your attention,
  Steo

Any chance you can get debug logs and a backtrace when reproducing it?
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ModemManager/Debugging/

For the backtrace, just:
$ gdb --args /usr/sbin/ModemManager --debug

Then type "r" (run), and when it crashes, type "b" (backtrace)
