rhythmbox-metadata crashed with SIGSEGV in type_check_is_value_type_U()

[Per-Inge]

This might be a duplicate of bug #838812 or bug #838193

I got the bug when scanning my music library. Happened both at the initial scan and today when I started Rhythmbox again.
Almost all songs are flac coded, but there are a number of mpg3 songs, which are reported as Import Errors, as there are no plugin to play mpg3 songs.

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

Oops, I just attempted this comment, but I flip-flopped the bug numbers. I hid that comment and am trying again.

Yeah, I think this is the same as bug 838193. The other bug might be basically the same, but I won't try to settle that question right now. I'm going to dupe this to bug 838193. Thanks.

Ok, I did go on to decide that bug 838193 is the same as bug 838812. :) I duped them to the latter, since that one is triaged. Thanks.
