Audacious 3.6 alpha1 and beta1 crash with a segmentation fault

Added by N.Y. Tam about 9 years ago

Hi!
I tried installing Audacious 3.6 alpha1 and beta1 on a Debian Unstable machine but ran into the same problem. Both versions compiled and installed OK. When I select ALSA and click on the Settings button, Audacious always crashes with a segmentation fault. Audacious 3.5 alpha1, however, works perfectly on a Fedora machine.
Any comment is greatly appreciated.

Hi John, I'm running the Webupd8 .deb version of the beta on Ubuntu 14.10 and experiencing the same bug as the OP. I'm attaching a copy of the backtrace. Let me know if there's anything I can do to make it more useful.

I took me some time to learn how to make a backtrace. Since I'm not a programmer I don't know whether it is basically the same as the one that Mike S attached. Let me attach it anyway.

Sorry for my ignorance, but how do I use the commit to fix the crash? I googled for an answer but no luck.

Thanks!

Sorry for the typo.

Best would be to clone the two Git repositories and recompile. You just need to run ./autogen.sh before ./configure; other than that it is the same as compiling from the .tar.gz packages.

I did that. The problem is fixed. Many thanks!
