xmms glib pointer error / flac solution
Hello,
I am funning slackware 10.1 with dropline gonme and slapt-get.
Using Dropline gnome I make sure that my gnome is up to date and with slapt-get my slackware 10.1 system is fully updated.
I found that xmms no longer will start. I receive a segfault error and some crap about glibc pointer error.
Anyways from what I have gathered through googling the problem is related to the flac plugin. From the flac mailing list:
--snip--
the bug came in with the http streaming patch and is only
fixed in CVS. sorry about that...

So by going into the /usr/lib/xmms/Input directory and simple removing the:
libxmms-flac.la
libxmms-flac.so
libraries will resolve the issue.
Or you could build flac from cvs.
