Description Grey Nicholson 2013-12-04 00:11:18 UTC

Description of problem:
When I tried to enable the Karaoke addin, Banshee immediately froze and did not unfreeze. After a while I chose “Force Quit”.

Now whenever I try to start Banshee it freezes and stays frozen.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
banshee-community-extensions.x86_64 0:2.4.0-5.fc19

How reproducible:
I can't try because I can't use Banshee any more.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable Banshee's Karaoke addin

Actual results:
Banshee immediately freezes. Whenever starting Banshee again, Banshee immediately freezes for much longer than usual, presumably forever.

Expected results:
It remains possible to use Banshee.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Grey Nicholson 2013-12-04 00:26:40 UTC

I regained the use of Banshee by deleting /usr/lib64/banshee/Extensions/Banshee.Karaoke.*

`sudo rm /usr/lib64/banshee/Extensions/Banshee.Karaoke.*`

I haven't yet tried reinstalling the package to try to reproduce this bug.

Comment 2 Grey Nicholson 2013-12-13 14:18:15 UTC

This bug also occurs on Fedora 20 i686 (32-bit).

To disable the extension without removing it, edit ~/.config/banshee-1/addin-db-001/config.xml and change:
<Addin id="Banshee.Karaoke,1.0" enabled="True" />
to
<Addin id="Banshee.Karaoke,1.0" enabled="False" />

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 20:46:17 UTC

This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2015-02-17 19:30:54 UTC

Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
