cmus crashes due to "segmentation fault" while building a library

[Thrilway]

Binary package hint: cmus

Sysem: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
cmus 2.2.0-4ubuntu3

Expected:
cmus builds a library

What happened instead:
cmus crashed and reported a "segmentation fault"

dmesg reported:
"cmus[15930]: segfault at 0 ip 00d94ef7 sp b65f05a0 error 4 in flac.so[d94000+2000]"

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug seems fixed in the latest development version of Ubuntu - Maverick Meerkat.
Please re-open if not so.

I've upgraded to Maverick and the issue persists

What version of cmus are you using?

[Thrilway (dan-milway)]

cmus 2.3.3-2build1

Thanks!

Can you please build a debug version of cmus from source
(http://gitorious.org/cmus)? You'll need PulseAudio, FLAC and ncursesw
-dev packages from the Ubuntu repository to do it:

./configure DEBUG=2
make
sudo make install

After this, can you run it under GDB in order to get stacktrace? Also,
~/cmus-debug.txt can contain helpful information.

Or, if that sounds like a lot of work, can you please find a guilty
.flac file (using binary search) and send it to me, so that I can
reproduce the problem?

Here's the stacktrace.

Do other players handle this file well?

From stacktrace, it looks like cmus assumes that the file has more channels than it actually does, and this leads to segfault when accessing non-existing buffer.

[Thrilway (dan-milway)]

Rhythmbox adds it to the library and plays it without issue.
neither vlc or xine could play it.

I sent a patch to cmus-devel (attached), so hopefully the bug can be closed soon. Thanks for reporting!

[Johannes W (jmuc)]

I'm closing the bug since it is fixed in the latest development version of Ubuntu - Oneiric Ocelot:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/cmus

For older versions of Ubuntu, you can use the package from my PPA:
