The problem is in your soudn installation I think. Gajim indeed never check if
process is finished, because it cannot know how long it should last. Gajim
launch aplay without waiting it finishes (else Gajim would freeze while playing
sound) and without timeout (in case you want to play a 2h long music when
someone connects.
aplay should not block, and I don't think we can do something about that.
Well, yes, I understand that. What I mean is that I now don't think
the sound is the real reason for gajim to hang. It's probably only the
symptom of the problem.
What happens is that Gajim, the whole application, freezes and
I have to kill the process and restart it. This happens as I can
remember when I close a chat window.
So I noticed that aplay was still there (as a zombie) and thought
it was the sound that made Gajim hang.
Now, since the same problem happens with artsplay, I'm not so sure
anymore, stracing it shows that Gajim just sits there waiting for
input with all it's windows completely frozen, they don't even repaint
when they have been hidden below another application.
So, do you know any easy way to turn on debugging in Gajim?
Haa I didn't understood Gajim was freezing. Indeed it's not related to
sound IMHO. But without a traceback or anything from strace, nor a way
to reproduce the bug, I don't see what I can do :/
Does it happen often? Do you always do the same thing before it freezes?
