I eventually followed the workaround in 531340 and reinstalled the kaa packages, and indeed now freevo takes off like a champ. Go figure.

Thanks, yes this box, which was my media server, had freevo 1.8.x installed from debian it now has 1.9.0 installed after an apt upgrade and it starts and stops immediately ( as described) so the problem with the package could be that the kaa modules are not forcibly upgraded.

So it looks like the problem is with one of the kaa packages, I have googled a bit to try and learn more about this, but I haven't seen anything conclusive, only hints that other users have run into a similar problem. I had a feeling this might be caused by a plugin or other and I removed them one at a time but trimming down to a barebones configuration hasn't made any difference. The only other issue I'm having with debian testing on the laptop is that certain keys are mapped to the wrong keycodes. I don't see this having any bearing on this issue, but I thought I'd mention it. Thanks, CJ This rings a bell about a bug in 1.9.0, I thought there was a fix for it but maybe that's only in svn. The maintainer of the 1.x branch has been pretty busy with other stuff for the last while so there's no release scheduled at the moment but you might want to check out an svn copy of the 1.9 code and see if that fixes it.

Thanks, CJ The bug tracker for 1.x is here http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=446895group_id=46652. But it looks like this might just be the result of having old kaa modules around. I've just had a look back through my imap archive and someone posted the same error as you. rm -r /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/kaa* then reinstalling kaa fixed it up for them.
