Description of problem: I've discovered the following problem using banshee: During the download of a podcast banshee sometimes uses up to 100% CPU time and crashes after a couple of seconds. The reason is a recursive call of two functions (please see referenced gnome bug report). The problem is not easy to trigger, because it is timezone-related (of the podcast as well as of the user). A detailed "how to reproduce" can be found in the gnome bug report. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): banshee-1.4.1-1.fc10.i386.rpm How reproducible: If the mentioned conditions are met then the problem is 100% reproducible (and very annoying). ;-) Additional info: The bug got already fixed in banshee's SVN (trunk). I've created a patch for F10 containing the same fix (besides the changelog entry) and a patch for banshee.spec. It would be great if it could be applied to banshee in F10 as well! Thank you very much in advance!
Created attachment 331355 [details] patch for banshee.spec
Created attachment 331356 [details] patch to correct the timezone handling
Thanks. I'm doing a test build now: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1117301 Could you confirm that the problem has disappeared, and also that it's still present in 1.4.2-1.fc10 that is in updates-testing? (yum install banshee --enablerepo=updates-testing) I'm currently on Rawhide, and some Mono GUI applications are currently not working there, so help testing is most welcome.

Then I've installed the new test build from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1117304 and the problem was fixed. > I'm currently on Rawhide, and some Mono GUI applications are currently not > working there, so help testing is most welcome. Sure, no problem!
Thanks for testing -- I'm building the new updates now. 1.4.2-1 has been in testing for long enough that it's probably better to land them in -stable first (they fix quite a few bugs), but I'm pushing this into testing once those land.
just doing some cleanup: The problem was fixed when banshee-1.4.2-3.fc10.i386.rpm was pushed to stable. so I set the bug to CLOSED/NEXTRELEASE. Thanks again!
