Banshee.exe crashes a lot

[Martijn vdS]

Banshee randomly crashes on me. It happens a lot when the system is busy (i.e. during an apt-get upgrade) or when playing something from one playlist, then double-clicking on another ("hard") playlist.

Banshee just hangs, and eats 400% CPU.

Note that I killed the "400% CPU eating" process with kill -11 to get apport to run.

Here's a log made using banshee --debug.

Some of the errors didn't make it into the logfile, but were dumped on STDERR:

Hello Martijn, or anyone else affected,

Accepted banshee into oneiric-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

[Chow Loong Jin (hyperair)]

Can't really test this bug as the buggy gconf has already been fixed in oneiric-updates (see Bug #848198) and Banshee only had this error with the buggy GConf, so let's just mark it as verification-done.
