This might be a dupe of bug #1801436 as it only happens with the alternative-toolbar plugin that was enabled by default.

Could you describe how you trigger the issue? Is that by clicking play? Does it happen on local files (any of those?) or other sources?

Since you can reproduce could you also maybe report it upstream on https://github.com/fossfreedom/alternative-toolbar/issues ?

Git Master has a suggested fix now - initial testing indicates success ...

I note there is a request for a SRU here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox-plugin-alternative-toolbar/+bug/1810086

So maybe should wrap the fix with the SRU?

Sebastien Bacher (seb128) wrote :

The fix commited upstream looks like more a workaround, unsure it qualifies for a SRU. Could you provide details on the gtk call/api/functions that doesn't like the non english label? Maybe we can come with a small python testcase and get the real gtk/binding issue fixed instead?

(0.18.1 as a SRU is an option, is that version a bugfix only one? unsure if the plugin has stable/unstable series?)

Didier, as discussed could you take over that one? The upstream commit of disabling column reordering in !en locale is not a fix, we should get at the bottom of it.
That's also blocking SRUing a newer bugfix version to bionic

(the upstream issue has some detail on the code impacted, it looks like it could be a gtk/binding issue, unless the rb-plugin is doing something stupid that gtk doesn't like)

I'll try looking at it again tomorrow. I tried multiple combinations yesterday and no luck so far…

I can easily trigger it this way on bionic (stock install, no music on disk)
$ sudo apt install language-pack-gnome-de
$ LANG= LANGUAGE= LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8 rhythmbox

- Click on the first item of the 3rd section on the left (the one with a star icon)
- dnd a column on the right of "Lange"
- click on some of the column headers

It segfaults every time I go to that section and click a column after those steps

I have tried reproducing it both on disco (without the prevent-reordering patch) and stock bionic with german locale installed.

I tried adding all available columns, reordering them, click on them. I also imported some MP3 with altered metadata with umlaüt on each category and retry the above (adding, reordering columns, double clicking…)

This was my investigations so far (I didn't spot anything obvious in the code as well).

I tried as well the above step descriptions. Note that I only have a star icon in French and a generic icon in German (and French translations only for those items), compared to your description. See the video attached. Subsequent rhythmbox close/launch doesn't change anything. What am I missing?

Didier Roche-Tolomelli (didrocks) wrote :

We need a decision if we SRU the workaround or not. After further investigations, I still can't reproduce it.
There is nothing clear in the bindings and it seems people can reproduce it without the plugin?

There is no proper fix, the workaround is questionable, nobody is actively working on it though so let's be realistic, it's a wontfix atm for bionic
