Description Joe Wrigley 2008-05-28 10:51:13 UTC
Description of problem:
When running banshee-1, if I choose to import media, it immediately crashes with
a traceback.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
banshee-0.99.1-2.fc9.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every time. Even with a clean config (essentially find -iname '*banshee*' -exec
rm {} \;)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start banshee
2. File->Import Media (or Ctrl-I)
  
Actual results:
Crashes

Expected results:
To open the Import Media dialogue

Additional info:
I've attached a tar of all the banshee-related config I have, but it also
behaves the same if I remove those files.

Also, a capture of the traceback.

Comment 3 Nigel Jones 2008-05-28 11:10:04 UTC
I can't reproduce w/ 0.99.2, so would you mind updating to Banshee 0.99.2 (yum
--enablerepo=updates-testing update banshee) if it insists there is nothing to
update you should be able to just do "rpm -Uhv
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/packages/banshee/0.99.2/1.fc9/x86_64/banshee-0.99.2-1.fc9.x86_64.rpm"

Please let me know if you can reproduce this bug with 0.99.2.

Thanks

Comment 5 Joe Wrigley 2008-05-28 11:40:22 UTC
I can indeed.

Please see the new banshee.log traceback.

I don't know if it's relevant, but I'm running xfce4 as my desktop environment.

Hmm thats strange.

It *may* be a dependency issue, I'll give it a shot later.

In the mean time, could you try to import by right clicking on the music library?

Comment 7 Joe Wrigley 2008-05-30 09:00:14 UTC
That behaves the same way.

I ran strace on it, and attach it here. Is there anything else I can do to
gather more useful data?

strace -f -F banshee-1 (and then right-click->Import Media)

OK, this is weird.

I did a couple of updates, one this morning, and I figured I'd try running
banshee "just to see".

It imports with no traceback!

I'm still running banshee-0.99.2-1.fc9.x86_64.

I guess this can be closed?

I'd like to see if I can reproduce this (it honestly sounds like broken
dependencies somewhere), sadly I've had a bit of trouble with RAM and QEMU the
last couple of days, assuming that everything is fine, I'll close it.

A clean Fedora 9 installation with Banshee 0.99.1 (original version reported)
and XFCE (installed during installation) worked fine.

I can't think of *any* logical explanation on WHY it acted like that and I
really wish I did so I could provide a fix/feedback on what to do to get it to
work.  

None the less, thank you for reporting the bug & if you can reproduce this
sometime in the near future, I'd love to hear (just reopen the bug) especially
if you can let me know what you did to make it happen again.
