Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Rhythmbox 0.11.6
Crashed while downloading podcasts.
Was not listening to anything at the time.
Not sure what caused it to crash, but it appears to be just as fragile as it was early on in Intrepid. Possible regression?

Here is a debug backtrace of a similar crash with the same 0.11.6svn20081008-0ubuntu4 version of rhythmbox. It also has a call from podcast_download_thread() to IA__g_type_check_instance_cast().
But it is not from the same spot inside podcast_download_thread().
