I *think* this is fixed in CVS. Are you guys using cvs.gnome.org or anoncvs.gnome.org as your repository?
Iain: I checked out the source from CVS yesterday night (5th Mar) and have built the application today. The crash problem seems to have gone. But the track editor doesn't open when clicked on the button. It gives an error as follows: gnome-cd (pid:27002): ** WARNING **: Could not activate track editor. IDL:Bonobo/GeneralError:1.0 Changing bug severity to normal
Iain: does this mean bug 73009 is also probably fixed?
Iain, Luis: I've checked up the latest today and the opening problem seems to have been fixed. Track editor opens up fine. But spews lot of warning messages on the command prompt. The editor isn't able to open any track info. Typical warning messages: cddb-track-editor (pid:2064): CDDBSlave2-WARNING **: Error getting disc title IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 cddb-track-editor (pid:2064): CDDBSlave2-WARNING **: Error getting artist IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 cddb-track-editor (pid:2064): CDDBSlave2-WARNING **: Error getting comment IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 cddb-track-editor (pid:2064): CDDBSlave2-WARNING **: Error getting genre IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 cddb-track-editor (pid:2064): CDDBSlave2-WARNING **: Error getting year IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 cddb-track-editor (pid:2064): CDDBSlave2-WARNING **: Error getting ntrks IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 cddb-track-editor (pid:2064): CDDBSlave2-WARNING **: Error getting tracks IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0
That means the CDDBSlave isn't running for some reason. A few days ago there was code changes that meant that everything had to recompiled cleanly from scratch. Could you run CDDBSlave2 in a terminal by itself, then start gnome-cd and see if anything is printed to the terminal CDDBSlave is running in.
Iain: I ran CDDBSlave2 in a separate window and then opened gnome-cd. The problem is with CDDBSlave2 itself. But CDDBSlave2 crashes immediately. I have filed a separate bug (bug # 74042) for CDDBSlave2 crash.
This is closed then :)
