** Description changed: [Impact] - Some users are unable to start Pitivi on 14.04 LTS, because of a - crasher. + Some users, mostly users who have installed more software like eg. + GStreamer codecs needed for common formats, are unable to start Pitivi + on 14.04 LTS, because of a crasher. [Test Case] Start pitivi on affected computer. [Regression Potential] - The suggested patch that fixes the problem changes the load order in - python, which seem fragile then. However at least testing on one - computer that did not have the crash originally, the fix doesn't break - anything either. + The original single patch fixed the issue but caused another window to + pop up behind the Pitivi window, which was a regression for fresh + install users. The new patch set both fixes the crasher and improves the + overall Pitivi usage like timeline drawing without regressions. --- I just upgraded to Kubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) yesterday, and pitivi stopped working. It segfaults immediately, with the following stdout error: lmilano@grisell:crash$ pitivi Missing soft dependency: - pycanberra not found on the system -> enables sound notifications when rendering is complete Segmentation fault (core dumped) Apport is not popping up, even if I launch pitivi from the main menu in KDE. But it did, just once, and it dumped a report in /var/crash - I will try to upload that file manually.
