tracker-extract crashed with SIGSEGV in gst_iterator_next()

[Derrick Neve]

Binary package hint: tracker

I don't even know what "tracker" is! I had just turned my laptop on and was preparing to read a flash SD disk when I got the message that there was a crash so I did as suggested and filed the problem report.

Good luck!

By the way, I am using 9.04 (updated last night from 8.10) but my screen is unusable so I'm going back to 8.10. I just booted up to backup all my files. Also I find I have no flash player on the web. Anyway, I'll wait for the general release.

Hi,

Can you find out which file caused this crash? We are constantly fixing the extractors and this might have already been fixed. It looks like it was a media file of some sorts since GStreamer is in the back trace. Any chance you could send us the file so we can test with it? It may already be fixed in TRUNK.

Better yet, if you could test with TRUNK, that would be really helpful. We are planning a release this week. It would be great to fix this if it is still an issue.

Thanks for the additional information here. Looking at the code, it all seems fine. Unless this is some internal GStreamer bug, I don't see what is going wrong here.

Are you able to send us the file which causes this situation? You can probably test it in a stand alone manner using tracker-extract (the --help should provide you with information on how to use it).

Thanks
