When ever I start KDE, artsd crashes. This did not start happening until I re-compiled aRts with gcc3.4.4. I have tried various CFLAG combinations, finally trying no optimization at all. Still, artsd crashes. I have also tried recompiling various libraries that aRts may rely on with no success. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile aRts using gcc3.4 (i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.4) 2. Start KDE 3. Watch aRts crash Actual Results: artsd crashed on startup. Expected Results: It shouldn't have crashed.

> #13 0xb766cc36 in __assert_fail () from /lib/libc.so.6 An assertion failure in libc. Now where does the error message go.... Things to try: - Run artsd from an xterm to see if there's any output, use -l0 param for debug output - Run artsd with a different audio output, eg null, and try fiddling with all its other params, although it shouldn't matter much here... - Think about not using artsd, which is deprecated/mostly unmaintained upstream... (USE=-arts for an arts-less system)

I'm quite sure that the solution is to make sure you compile arts and kdemultimedia with the same compiler. See bug 67532, bug 61146. Please reopen if it persists. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 67532 ***
