Description Gideon Mayhak 2008-02-23 23:11:31 UTC
Description of problem:
With the latest update of the gstreamer-plugins-schroedinger package, GNOME
gives an error related to settings not being able to load and the volume applet
fails to load.  Removing the package or downgrading to the previous release
solves the issue.  I will re-update and post the various error messages.  The
schroedinger package does not seem to cause any problems; only the
gstreamer-plugins-schroedinger package.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gstreamer-plugins-schroedinger-1.0.0-1.fc9.i386


How reproducible:
It gives errors every time I login or try to load gnome-sound-properties or
other sound applications (such as pavucontrol).


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update to gstreamer-plugins-schroedinger-1.0.0-1.fc9.i386
2. Log in
3. Load gnome-sound-properties or pavucontrol


Actual results:
Gives error related to the GStreamer Schroedinger plugin and fails to load.


Expected results:
Load properly without error and be able to have the latest Schroedinger packages.


Additional info:
I will post a couple screenshots and some error messages shortly.

Error that pops up when I first log in.

This is the error that appears when I first log in after updating
gstreamer-plugins-schroedinger.

This also pops up right after I log in.

Another error I receive right after logging in.  Attempting to reload just
results in another error.

Error when trying to load pavucontrol.

This is the error I receive if I try to load pavucontrol.  Running from a
terminal gave me no additional information.

Comment 4 Gideon Mayhak 2008-02-23 23:22:10 UTC
Finally, when attempting to load gnome-sound-properties from a terminal, I
receive this message:

[gideon@gidux-laptop-devel ~]$ gnome-sound-properties

ERROR: Caught a segmentation fault while loading plugin file:
/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstschro.so

Please either:
- remove it and restart.
- run with --gst-disable-segtrap and debug.
Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal
Run 'gnome-sound-properties --help' to see a full list of available command line
options.

This is how I discovered my problems were due to the latest
gstreamer-plugins-schroedinger package.  Removing it removed my problems, and I
did not have to remove the schroedinger package.

Comment 5 Gideon Mayhak 2008-02-23 23:42:16 UTC
I now receive the error even with the previous version, and I also now receive
an error related to /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstaudioresample.so when I don't
have the gstreamer-plugins-schroedinger package installer.  I am running the
latest gstreamer packages (0.10.17-2.fc9).  I fear this may be a problem with
gstreamer and not just the shroedinger packages.  Please let me know if there's
anything else I can test.  Right now, I'm without audio and programs like
Rhythmbox are crashing (kind of a downer, as I like my music).

Comment 6 Gideon Mayhak 2008-02-24 01:55:11 UTC
I tried downgrading to the 0.10.17-1.fc9 packages, but things are still broken.
 I started receiving the errors upon login again, until I updated back to the
latest.  Now I don't receive errors at login, but I cannot play any sound.

Comment 7 Jeffrey C. Ollie 2008-02-24 02:22:40 UTC
Are you sure this isn't a problem with pulseaudio?  Was that upgraded at the
same time?  Are non-gstreamer applications able to play sound?  You might try
playing a .wav file with "aplay" to see if that works...

Comment 8 Jeffrey C. Ollie 2008-02-24 02:25:11 UTC
Actually, looks like this might be a problem with liboil, which was upgraded at
the same time as schroedinger.  See bug 434654.
