Rhythmbox segfaults when using URI's like smb://machine-name/share-name/file-name.mp3

[Flavio C. da Costa]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Hey,

I'm using Hardy and the problem I'm experiencing happens with Rhythmbox version 0.11.5-0ubuntu6.

Let me describe the situation:

I have 2 desktops (both running Windows XP) and a notebook (running Hardy). Both desktops have a Windows Share called 'Mp3' where I store the musics I have on it. If I try to add these files in the Rhythmbox playlist by opening the application and then clicking on the menu "Music -> Import File" it works like a charm, but when I try to play the music using the "context menu" (maybe that's not the proper term, in Windows I think people call it Shell Extensions) the application tries to start but then closes almost instantly and I can see this message in /var/log/messages:

kernel: [ 455.479155] rhythmbox[7117]: segfault at 00000008 eip 08062f56 esp bfe3a890 error 4

I'm willing to provide more info if needed, just point me how to get it.

Hey,

I'm attaching a backtrace and a Valgrind "dump".
In order to obtain those logs I had to find a way of calling rhythmbox the same way the "context menu" does and it was easy enough to find out. Turns out that rhythmbox simply runs like this "rhythmbox smb://machine-name/share-name/filename.mp3" so that's how I managed to reproduce the bug through the command line.

I think that's all, If you need anything else, just ask.

confirming, thanks will look upstream.
