System log is spammed by non-existant interfaces about tophat HOT 5 CLOSED

Thanks for reporting this! I think you're right, this seems like it's related to how TopHat is using libgtop, though I haven't been able to replicate it myself yet. Does the log spam occur roughly every two seconds?

I might have tracked this down, though I wasn't able to replicate it; can you let me know if this change resolves the issue for you?

I'll try later today, thanks

I've also experienced this, in my case on my desktop computer it's spamming this every few seconds, as can be seen with journalctl -f:

gnome-shell[832185]: [TopHat] Error reading /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_input: Error opening file /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_input: No such file or directory

It should probe for the existence of such files before trying to access them, and fail gracefully and silently.

Thanks for reporting this @nekohayo! You're right, I'll look at fixing this for the next release.
