Description W. Michael Petullo 2005-09-04 03:09:46 UTC 
Version details: Fedora Rawhide RPM rhythmbox-0.8.8-3
Distribution/Version: Fedora Rawhide

1.  Start rhythmbox.
2.  Import a music library from a folder on an NFS share or removable disk.
3.  Quit rhythmbox.
4.  Unmount the NFS share or remove the disk.
5.  Start rhythmbox.

At this point the music library is lost.  ~/gnome2/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml is
empty and the library must be re-imported.

The library should not be lost.  It would be nice if the songs were listed but
somehow annotated as unavailable.
