Bug 84103 – beep-media-player crashed while trying to play mp3

• Status: RESOLVED CANTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jan Han Xie 2005-03-04 08:55:45 UTC]

beep-media-player crashed while I click the play button (or double click in the playlist) to play a mp3 file. It works well with .wmv and .ape files... After crashed it reports these:

Received SIGSEGV

This could be a bug in BMP. If you don't know why this happened, send a mail to us at [e-mail]

Have you enabled the "mp3" USE-flag?
BMP will not be able to play MP3 files unless you enable the optional support for it.

[Comment 2 Jan Han Xie 2005-03-04 18:55:36 UTC]

Yes. I emerged bmp with mp3 USE flag turned on.

[Comment 3 Tony Vroon (RETIRED) 2005-03-05 08:11:41 UTC]

Okay, just wanted to be sure of that.
Please remove -fPIC from your CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS. The rest of your CFLAGS looks same. I see you have defined LDFLAGS as well, if removing -fPIC from CFLAGS isn't enough, try with LDFLAGS unset.

[Comment 4 Jan Han Xie 2005-03-05 10:43:16 UTC]

I've tried to remove -fPIC from CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS or disable LDFLAGS or both and the problem remained.

[Comment 5 Tony Vroon (RETIRED) 2005-03-05 10:52:12 UTC]

I can't reproduce your problem.
There are two options here; permanently delete "-fPIC" from your CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS and unset LDFLAGS then emerge -e world, and you can get support here.
Or, remove "-fomit-frame-pointer -fPIC" from CFLAGS and add "-g3", then emerge beep-media-players with USE="debug" RESTRICT="nostrip".
gdb /usr/bin/beep-media-player, wait for the problem to occur then type bt
This backtrace may help the BMP developers fix the error.

If you choose the path of emerge -e world, you may reopen with your new emerge info if the problem still occurs.
