Hey there,
after a archlinux upgrade, I was unable to launch gnote anymore, even on compiling it by myself, got instant crash !

There is what is displayed run into a console : Segmentation fault (core dumped)

There is the backtrace : https://gist.github.com/anonymous/dbb046fff5bf1462e6aa

Can you try typing this to console:
echo $DESKTOP_SESSION

The is the only reason for the crash I can see.
Comment 2 Aurimas Černius 2015-07-06 18:17:44 UTC 
Confirmed, that this is the case.
The fix for this bug will soon be available, in the mean time workaround is to set DESKTOP_SESSION evironment variable to anything.

Confirmed, much thanks for the stupendous rapidity :)
