LMDE: Exaile will not start

[Rob]

Linux Mint Debian Edition
Release: 1 (debian) 32-bit

Exaile downloaded from repository fails to load.

When opened from terminal, the following errors are displayed:

/usr/lib/exaile/xl/library.py:17: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
  import md5, os, random, re, threading, time, traceback, gc, sys

Downloading Exaile binaries from exaile.org results in an application that runs but hits a segmentation fault when I try to play any track.

Thanks for reporting this.

Installed xulrunner-1.9.1 to get the program to load proper, however also segfaults when playing any track.
Tried the Ubuntu version as well which also segfaulted when loading track.

Exploring avenues of what is causing this failure.

I also reported this bug to debian, but it seems that the maintainer has no more interest in exaile :-(
Maybe the team from linuxmint can take over exaile and maintain it *g*
