Description Dave Jones 2009-08-17 21:30:32 UTC

insert an ipod, select a bunch of songs, and drag them to the ipod. RB will start doing the copy/conversion process, but for every song, it's leaking a file descriptor.
This can be seen in /proc/(pidof rhythmbox)/fd/

After a while, the per-process limit is reached, and rb starts popping up hundreds of dialog windows, which causes metacity to freak out.
The only way out of this death spiral is to kill rb and metacity from the console, as X stops responding to events.

running rb in debug mode also shows the leak ..

This seems to be fixed in the version of rhythmbox in F12.
