Subject: xmms-osd-plugin: Crashes xmms after a short time

Package: xmms-osd-plugin
Version: 2.2.8-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

It causes xmms to segfault shortly after startup. Rapid changing of songs
(and hence using OSD to display the new song title) will mean experiencing
the segfault quicker. XMMS has to be forcibly killed from the command line
once it crashes (killall xmms).

Thanks for your packaging efforts. I certainly appreciate the very useful
osd-plugin.

I originally thought this was bug #265230 but I have since worked out that
if I disable the osd-plugin no crashing occurs and as soon as I enable it
again (in the xmms preferences), xmms segfaults. The strace I left at bug
#265230 will, I hope, be useful:

Please let me know if you need any further assistance tracking this one
down.

Cheers,
Stu.
