Bug Description
Upon installing Banshee 2.6.2 from the main repositories on Ubuntu MATE 14.04, the music player immediately crashes upon start-up.
After analysing the crash and researching for a solution, it appears to be a problem when loading the Podcasting extension.
This can be fixed with one of two ways:
a. Remove the file /usr/lib/
b. Create the directory 'Podcasts' in the user's home directory.
I have attached the terminal output, which appears to have a problem with GLib.
A similar bug appeared in 2010 with Ubuntu 10.10:
