Console debugging output

Description of problem:
A few days ago, Rhythmbox's Last.fm plugin started skipping all the tracks on its playlist. It doesn't matter which Last.fm station you choose.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhythmbox-0.11.6-19.r6096.fc10.i386

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Rhythmbox
2. Open Last.fm tab
3. Start playing any station.
  
Actual results:
All tracks on the playlist are skipped.

Expected results:
Tracks should play normally.

Additional info:
I attached the console output of running Rhythmbox with the debug switch enabled.

last.fm is working OK for me with rhythmbox-0.12.1-3.fc11.i586, but this Fedora 11 version is more recent than the Fedora 10 version you reported the problem against.

Can you tell/remember if there an update to Rhythmbox that triggered this problem, or did it just start apparently on its own?  (Updates are generally recorded in /var/log/rpm* and yum* .) I'm wondering if this was a transient problem at the service provider's end.  After updating to the latest version (rhythmbox-0.11.6-22.r6096.fc10 if you are still running Fedora 10) are you still having this problem?

If so, I would check to see that your account is functioning properly if you visit last.fm in a web browser, and whether the same problem occurs if you create a new Unix user account and try again with a fresh configuration.

Today I tested last.fm with rhythmbox-0.11.6-22.r6096.fc10 on my F10 machine and it still failed to work. The error on the command line was:
Entity: line 1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
The requested service is no longer available. Please update your client to use o
^

However, on my F11 machine with a more recent version of rhythmbox, it works properly.

I'm thinking whether it would be wise to update the rhythmbox in F10 to version 0.12?

This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 10.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '10'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
