Description molle.bestefich 2006-10-19 01:09:39 UTC

Amarok has consistently crashed on startup for about half a year now.
I'm a bit tired of it being unusable, so here's a bug report :-).

I don't get a KDE backtrace window (and even if I did, those are completely useless under Gentoo, for some reason?... Anyway).  When started from a console, this is what amarokapp has to tell.

============================================
QLayout "unnamed" added to QVBox "unnamed", which already has a layout
QLayout: Adding KToolBar/mainToolBar (child of QVBox/unnamed) to layout for PlaylistWindow/PlaylistWindow
Amarok is crashing...
Running: gdb --nw -n --batch -x /tmp/kde-root/amarokrjBbuc.tmp amarokapp 27850
Running: file `which amarokapp`
1.4.3 [___stripped][validity: 0.47][frames:  38][xine]

Amarok has crashed! We are terribly sorry about this :(

But, all is not lost! Perhaps an upgrade is already available which fixes the problem. Please check your distribution's software repository.
============================================

I've cleared Amarok's user data directory before running it, so it's not because of a bad podcast, corrupted DB or something like that.  It does get as far as recreating collection.db and a bunch of other files before crashing.

We also need amarok version, emerge -pv amarok output and emerge --info.
