Description of problem: Using libmusicbrainz to obtain information on occasion I get this error message MusicBrainz: Connecting to http://musicbrainz.org:80 MusicBrainz: GET /ws/1/release/?type=xml&artist=The%20Sound%20of%20Arrows fatal error in libgcrypt, file visibility.c, line 1250, function gcry_create_nonce: called in non-operational state Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libmusicbrainz-2.1.5-12.fc15.x86_64 libgcrypt-1.4.6-1.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Random Steps to Reproduce: 1. run gnome-mplayer with an mp3 file 2. gnome-mplayer may crash due to libgcrypt fatally exiting 3. Actual results: 99% of the time libmusicbrainz returns with no problem Expected results: libgcrypt should fail more gracefully in this state. A library should not exit the application. Additional info:
This error can be triggered only by some substantial mishandling of the libgcrypt API calls in the libmusicbrainz or memory corruption. There is nothing better libgcrypt could do than abort.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached 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, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. 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: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
