Description xeddvok7bd7464n2 2011-10-17 21:39:20 UTC
Description of problem:

This plugin does not work on FC 15 (with Rhythmbox 2.90.1 and Gnome 3).d 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.4-2.fc15


How reproducible:

Install 'rhythmbox-equalizer'. It doesn't show up in 'Edit > Plugins' (plug-in list).


Steps to Reproduce:

1. '# yum install rhythmbox-equalizer'
2. Open Rhythmbox
3. Go to 'Edit > Plugins'


Actual results:

'Rhyhmbox Equalizer' is not there in the list!


Expected results:

It should be in the list!


Additional info:

I tryed to adapt the plugin for Gnome 3, but unfortunately it didn't help. I made these changes:

* (/usr/lib/rhythmbox/plugins/rbeq): 'mv rbeq.rb-plugin rbeq.plugin'
* (same folder):                     'mv __init__.py rbeq.py'

Now, 'Rhythmbox Equalizer' showed up in the list ('Edit > Plugins'), but Rhythmbox always crashed when clicking on the item. Error message from the terminal:

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:40: Warning: specified class size for type `PyGtkGenericCellRenderer' is smaller than the parent type's `GtkCellRenderer' class size
  from gtk import _gtk

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:40: Warning: g_ascii_strncasecmp: assertion `s2 != NULL' failed
  from gtk import _gtk
Segmentation fault (core dumped)


Would be great if somebody with the technical knowledge could adapt this plug-in for the current Rhythmobx and Gnome version. Thanks in advance!

Comment 1 Hicham HAOUARI 2011-10-18 07:54:00 UTC
I made it work under f15+, but I still have a crasher when enabling/disabling the plugin, will try to get to it once I get some time.

Comment 2 xeddvok7bd7464n2 2012-02-15 07:47:20 UTC
Same problem under FC16: Plugin doesn't appear under 'Edit' -> 'Plugins'.

Comment 3 Mitch Davis 2012-04-19 05:28:56 UTC
I have the same problem.  

I did an strace of rhythmbox, and it is trying to load rbeq.plugin, which does not exist.  I renamed mv rbeq.rb-plugin to rbeq.plugin, then rhythmbox complains that there is no module called "rbeq".  This is because rhythmbox is looking for a section called "Plugin", not "RB Plugin".  I renamed that too.  Then strace shows that rhythmbox is looking for rbeq.py, which doesn't exist.  However equalizer.py exists, so I modified the .plugin file.  Then I get the same segfault as in comment 0.

Change as follows, if it helps:

--- rbeq.plugin.orig	2012-04-19 15:03:18.690327232 +1000
+++ rbeq.plugin	2012-04-19 15:08:05.345767416 +1000

Would love a fix for this!

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 16:18:52 UTC
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:
