Package: gxine
Version: 0.5.903-4
Severity: important
I installed gxine on Jan 16 and was able to play VCDs/DVDs on it
automatically whenever VCDs/DVDs were inserted into the multimedia tray.
The commands used in gnome configurator were gxine -f vcd:// and gxine -f
dvd://.
However, after I updated the repositories using aptitude over Jan 19 and
20, I wasn't able to play VCDs (video CDs and VCD 2.0) anymore. gxine
always reported "Fatal error Segmentation Fault" whether gxine started
automatically or manually. There is no problem in playing DVDs.
gxine, by itself, knows nothing of video CDs.
You can help by re-testing with xine-ui. If this also fails, then (as I
suspect) the bug's in xine-lib 1.1.14-4; this will need to be reassigned to
the appropriate binary package.
Installed and tested xine-ui. DVDs works. As soon as VCD (VCD, (not
VCD0) is chosen, it bombs out with the following error msgs:
xiTK received SIGSEGV signal, RIP.
Aborted
Installing libxine1-dbg and gdb and getting a backtrace from gxine may also
be helpful (you may need to use "thread apply all bt"). You could also
upgrade libxine1* to the version in unstable and see if the bug's still
present.
Sorry, don't know how to use libxine1-dgb and gdb, so only tried to
upgrade libxine1* to the version in unstable. I have only the followings
installed so I tried to upgrade them:
libxine1
libxine1-doc
libxine1-bin
libxine1-console
libxine1-ffmpeg
libxine1-gnome
libxine1-misc-plugins
libxine1-plugins
libxine1-x
However, I hit dependency problems and have to abort the upgrade and
reverted back to the version in Lenny. Please advise how I could upgrade
to libxine1* without breaking others so I can try again. I downloaded
the above mentioned packages from sid/unstable and used dpkg -i to
install them. Used aptitude to revert back to the versions in Lenny.
(I have a video CD _somewhere_, but I can't find it right now else I'd test
this myself.)
If you don't mind a large iso file, I will try to see if I can make a
copy of it and email to your private email address.
Also, when I used the reportbug program for gxine, it reported that the
checksums for file gxine.desktop did not match. Where can I find a copy of
gxine.desktop file and replace the one I have now? [...]
You don't. It's generated at install time. (Although perhaps I should be
using a template rather than overwriting...)
