Description Andreas Kaempf 2003-02-27 20:52:28 UTC 
Garnome build for Gnome 2.2 crashed with a segmentation fault when trying
to build either Nautilus-media or Gnome-media from source (everything else
built okay). The crash occurred while running gst-register, at plugin
'ffmpeg' which showed 112 (!) options. Using gdb, I traced the crash to
line 110 of gstplugin.c, where I inserted a printf to display the plugin
name and file, which turned out to be libgstarts.so. I moved this file to
another directory, and the build was able to proceed successfully to
completion. So there seems to be something wrong with libgstarts.so, either
the plugin itself or my build of it. I'm using GCC 3.22 without problem on
everything else.

Let me know if you want me to send any additional information or my copy of
libgstarts.so.

Best regards, and thanks for all the great work--Gnome 2.2 looks fantastic!

This means something is wrong with the artsd lib on your system (or
we're expecting something else). Can you run gst-register with
--gst-mask=-1 and give the last +/- 20 lines of output (the part where
it tries to load the artsd plugin and fails)?

Nothing heard back, closing bug.
