 it is a packaging problem
 i ran the rm-r on the directory and reinstalled the kaa modules and mine 
 works 
 too
 the package is identified with a team email address rather than an individual 
 so i hope that they on this list

There are acutally two bugs already open in the debian tracking system,
#531340, and #531408. 

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

Go figure.

 But this is debian, and I'm not sure I want to do anything that would
 break apt.

 I'm really only using this debian system for evaluation purposes and to
 report bugs while there's time to fix them rather than have them hit me
 when squeeze goes stable.

 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.
   
Or that the maintainer didn't clean his/her install before making the 
packages? Either way it sounds like a package problem.

 This is what I see at the end of the freevo log:

 A Freevo ready message, a couple of python back traces and immediately
 afterwards the Freevo finished message.

 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.

Sounds like a plan. 

Please let me know where I can check on open Freevo 1.9 bugs so I can
report this to the debian maintainer before squeeze goes stable.

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.
