abrt crashes trying to upload additional attachments, including full backtrace.

Comment 2 Tom "spot" Callaway 2016-04-01 21:09:38 UTC
So here's the dilemma:

The xmms in Fedora doesn't support mp3 playback, for legal reasons. Which means the code you're using either is self-compiled, or you have mp3 support from a third-party repository.

It is highly likely that the bug is in the mp3 playback part, but as I cannot provide support for that part, it makes it very difficult for me to debug.

Also, I'm pretty sure that the xmms upstream is dead and gone. This doesn't leave you many options to try to get this fixed. If you've installed xmms mp3 support from a third party repo, please open a bug there. If from source, you're pretty much on your own.

If you can reproduce the bug on the fedora xmms package without mp3 (or some other encumbered codec) in the mix, please reopen.
