I don't get it... kaffeine doesn't start anymore. used to work fine, 'till a couple of weeks ago. I think a kde update or something broke it. I tried recompiling... no help. this is all I get from gdb Starting program: /usr/bin/kaffeine [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread -1238185088 (LWP 9688)] nothing If I ctrl-c it... 0xb7f76410 in __kernel_vsyscall () (gdb) bt #0 0xb7f76410 in __kernel_vsyscall () #1 0xb66b42f3 in __read_nocancel () from /lib/libpthread.so.0 #2 0xb711658e in _kde_IceTransSocketRead () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libDCOP.so.4 #3 0xb711625f in _kde_IceTransRead () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libDCOP.so.4 #4 0xb711028f in _kde_IceRead () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libDCOP.so.4 #5 0xb711485e in KDE_IceProcessMessages () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libDCOP.so.4 #6 0xb71020b6 in DCOPClient::callInternal () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libDCOP.so.4 #7 0xb710239b in DCOPClient::callInternal () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libDCOP.so.4 #8 0xb7104f8b in DCOPClient::call () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libDCOP.so.4 #9 0xb7104ff7 in DCOPClient::call () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libDCOP.so.4 #10 0xb7284572 in KUniqueApplication::start () from /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libkdecore.so.4 #11 0x0806c19a in main (argc=33555202, argv=0x33) at main.cpp:94 #12 0xb634583c in __libc_start_main () from /lib/libc.so.6 #13 0x0806be51 in _start () (gdb) Reproducible: Always
Which kaffeine version is this about? Also, post emerge --info output.
Created attachment 119519 [details] emerge --info [ebuild R ] media-video/kaffeine-0.8.4 USE="debug encode vorbis -arts -dvb -gstreamer -kdehiddenvisibility -xcb -xinerama" 0 kB note: most of the system has been built with -fomit-frame-pointer I removed it to rebuild kaffeine in hopes I would get a better trace.
