Comment 1 Lionel Landwerlin 2012-11-28 11:51:38 UTC

The crash happens in thread 3 (the one doing dconf related stuff).

Valgrind log

I tried to run rhythmbox under valgrind but it crashes pretty early.
That's probably another problem but it might help to fix the original bug.

Comment 3 Jonathan Matthew 2012-11-28 12:33:25 UTC

The first crash looks like your dconf state is messed up. What output do you get from 'dconf dump /org/gnome/rhythmbox/' ?

The crash you saw under valgrind looks like a bug that was fixed after 2.97.

Comment 4 Lionel Landwerlin 2012-11-28 13:19:21 UTC

dconf dump

Comment 5 Jonathan Matthew 2012-11-28 21:04:02 UTC

Guess that wasn't it. Can you install debug symbols for glib and dconf and get another stack trace?

Comment 6 Lionel Landwerlin 2012-11-29 10:43:45 UTC

Crash in thread 9 :
