Dev tools console automatically opens with minimapViewProvider errors

[fredrikekelund]

I'm running Atom 1.13.0 on macOS Sierra 10.12.1 with minimap 4.26.6. The minimap isn't showing up after starting Atom, and once I start typing, the console in the Chromium dev tools open automatically with a number of errors produced by the minimap package. Here's the error message and the stack trace:

/Applications/Atom.app/Contents/Resources/app.asar/src/package.js:514
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'minimapViewProvider' of null

Stack trace:

Let me know if I can do anything to debug the issue further!

Hi there, sorry for the delay, it's quite a weird issue it looks like the whole package wasn't properly loaded. Is there any report of a package loading error when starting Atom? What returns atom.getLoadedPackage('minimap').mainModule in the console? It should be an object with a minimapViewProvider on it.

Since I initially couldn't get rid of this error, I disabled the minimap package. After updating it to 4.26.7 I re-enabled it, and I haven't been able to reproduce the error for an hour or so now. I don't know if this could have been a hiccup during the previous update? Can you still reproduce it @darfil81?
