Still there for git master (after 3.11.4). The source removal triggers an ESourceSelector model rebuild, which triggers primary-selection-change signal emit, which tries to open a book for just removed ESource, which fails.

Created commit 3066ddf in evo master (3.11.5+)
Created commit d90cd8b in evo gnome-3-10 (3.10.4+)
