I tried the same (installing Sid on a fresh machine), and indeed, Blam starts fine there, so I went back to my old machine where it doesn't work, and tried to get it to work there. I tried adding a new user and starting Blam from there, but that doesn't help anything. Next I tried downgrading the libmono0 package back from 1.0.5-1 to 1.0.4-1, and suddenly Blam starts again! Upgrading libmono0 reintroduces the problem, so at least it is reproducible on this one machine (I checked to see if the 1.0.5-1 .deb had been corrupted -- it wasn't). About the strace thing I reported: I don't know whether you already knew this or not, but Blam always exhibits the behaviour I mentioned in my other bug report, even when it is working fine (as long as it is in an idle state). So my plan to detect by strace whether there is something wrong with the current combination of Blam and the Mono libraries has alas been foiled. This leaves me with no clue on how to investigate matters further. Johan, if you have any other ideas, please say so, otherwise feel free to close this bug (since it doesn't seem reproducible on any other machines except for this one).
