xbmc with vdpau crashes on stop

[Peter Frühberger]

When freeing surfaces in application that use shared contexts, mesa will segfault. This was fixed with the following upstream patch, which was also marked for stable 10.1

The attachment "Fix segfault when pressing stop" seems to be a patch. If it isn't, please remove the "patch" flag from the attachment, remove the "patch" tag, and if you are a member of the ~ubuntu-reviewers, unsubscribe the team.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Maarten Lankhorst (mlankhorst)]

This is scheduled to be fixed in 10.1.1, I think it's better to handle this post release as a SRU.

[Peter Frühberger (peter-fruehberger)]

Another option is: Cherry-picking (as it fixes a real segfault) and dropping after 10.1.1 has landed. I did not see an ETA for 10.1.1 yet.

@mlankhorst: If I'm interpreting your comment correctly, this bug will not be fixed for trusty final?
This would be a real bummer and make trusty unusable for htpc users on AMD hardware, while it otherwise provides a nearly perfect basis.

[Claudio (claudio-porfiri)]

Please fix the problem as soon as possible.
It prevents plenty of people to adopt Ubuntu 14.04 when using AMD graphics cards.

[Peter Frühberger (peter-fruehberger)]

Until this bug is fixed upstream, e.g. in Ubuntu, wsnipex prepared a fixed version

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:wsnipex/mesa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

The package uploaded to trusty-proposed 10.1.3 fixes that issue. Thank you very much.

10.1.3 is in trusty now.
