With banshee-0.10.6 See gnome bug for more info. Steps to reproduce: Turning on the metadata plugin produces consistent and near immediate crashes. I don't need to touch the interface for the crash to occur (see below). The crash also appears as: *** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list: 0xb4a8b840 *** Console output: scottell@arroyo ~/devel/cuyahoga $ banshee Warning: [02/03/2006 10:30:30] (Cannot connect to NetworkManager) - An available, working network connection will be assumed Player Engine `Helix Framework Engine (hxclientkit)' failed init tests... disabling (Couldn't create player) Debug: [02/03/2006 10:30:30] (Changed active playback engine) - GStreamer Debug: [02/03/2006 10:30:30] (Loaded primary playback engine) - GStreamer Debug: [02/03/2006 10:30:30] (Loaded Audio CD playback engine) - GStreamer Debug: [02/03/2006 10:30:31] (Audio CD Core Initialized) - Warning: [02/03/2006 10:30:32] (Could not connect to D-Bus) - D-Bus support will be disabled for this instance: Object reference not set to an instance of an object Scanning library for tracks to update Done scanning library Processing track queue for pending queries Querying MusicBrainz for 10,000 Maniacs / I'm Not the Man...

Apparently a gcc-issue, I solved it with these steps: 1. run gcc-config and set it to the newest version (3.4.5) 2. remerge your _entire_ system (emerge world -ueD) 3. go to sleep.
well that is something that isn't related with banshee. I have my world compiled with gcc-4.0.2 and i didn't reproduce this bug. If you continue to have the same problem after re-emerge all world please send us a backtrace.
