Added a reference to GNOME bug #346759, might be related to this

I rebuilt rawhide rhythmbox 0.9.6 in mock and while it seems to fix the file
watching, multimedia keys no longer work. Any fix on the horizon for FC6?

-- Additional comment from tjb on 2006-11-08 20:26 EST --
Tried the same 0.9.6 rpm I built for Comment #3 on my laptop and it worked fine.
Maybe it's all we need for fc6?

Michal, can you please try the rhythmbox-0.9.5-7.fc6 that I have just pushed
into updates-testing ?


If test results from the fc6 update are positive, we should put the
fix into RHEL5 too

Comment 1 Alexander Larsson 2006-11-20 17:24:19 UTC

Built as rhythmbox-0.9.5-7.el5

Comment 2 Nicole Dai 2006-12-12 09:50:43 UTC

From the following testing, the bug was not reproduced in rhythmbox-0.9.5-4.fc6.
I am not sure if my testing steps are wrong. Matthias, could you pls take a look
at it? Thanks.

Retested the following steps with rhythmbox-0.9.5-4.fc6 on
RHEL5-Client-20061024.5 x86_64 system:
1. Launch rhythmbox by Applications -> Sounds & Videos -> Rhythmbox
2. Skip all steps in the wizard
3. In the Music Player window, highlight Library entry in the left panel
4. Click Music -> Import File, select a folder which contains track files
Result: the track was imported immediately.

5. Right-click the tracks in the Library -> Remove
Result: the track was removed successfully

Also tested the steps in rhythmbox-0.9.5-8.el5 on RHEL5-Client-20061207.0 and
the problem was not found.

Comment 3 Alexander Larsson 2006-12-13 10:19:47 UTC

The bug was about external remove events. So, you have to remove the file in a
shell.

Comment 4 Nicole Dai 2006-12-15 10:40:08 UTC

I tried the following steps with rhythmbox-0.9.5-8.el5 on RHEL5-Client-20061207.0:
1.In g-t, type gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/rhythmbox
2.Launch rhythmbox by Applications -> Sounds & Videos -> Rhythmbox
3.In the Music library setup, specify a path for the libary, such as ~/music_lib
4.In g-t, try to add files to ~/music_lib and observe the library source by GUI
of rhythmbox
5.In g-t, try to remove files to ~/music_lib and observe the library source by
GUI of rhythmbox
Result:4&5 Nothing happened from GUI of rhythmbox. It looks it still has problem.
Hi Alexander, are my test steps right? could you pls take a look at it? Thanks.

Comment 5 Nicole Dai 2006-12-15 10:52:45 UTC

Another finding: if restart rhythmbox after "In g-t, try to add files to
~/music_lib" or "In g-t, try to remove files to ~/music_lib", it will take effect.

Verified on RHEL5-Client-20061226.nightly with rhythmbox-0.9.5-8.el5, import and
delete files in Library works fine. So resolve this bug, if anybody could
reproduce it again, pls feel free to reopen it.
