Package: webcamoid-plugins Version: 9.0.0-6 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable X-Debbugs-Cc: fieldho...@gmx.net
Dear Maintainer, This bug occurs on a relatively fresh MX-Linux 23 i386 system. The distro's preferred Webcam application (webcamoid) silently fails in the GUI. Launching from the command line shows that it crashed with a single line error, good old 'Segmentation fault'. Whatever outcome should be expected, this was not it. An alternative application (eg, guvcview) works. So does webcamoid if its plugin directory /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/avkys/ is inaccessible. By elimination, I identified /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/avkys/libMultiSink_ffmpeg.so as the single item in the directory that caused the crash. More generally this package lacks clarity on what functionality each plugin provides. I couldn't easily determine what was lost by removing the problem plugin file. thx /df -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-12-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages webcamoid-plugins depends on: ii libasound2 1.2.8-1+b1 ii libavcodec59 7:5.1.3-1 ii libavdevice59 7:5.1.3-1 ii libavformat59 7:5.1.3-1 ii libavkys9 9.0.0-6 ii libavutil57 7:5.1.3-1 ii libc6 2.36-9+deb12u3 ii libgcc-s1 12.2.0-14 ii libglib2.0-0 2.74.6-2 ii libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-0 1.22.0-3+deb12u1 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.22.0-2 ii libjack-jackd2-0 [libjack-0.125] 1.9.21~dfsg-3 ii libkmod2 30+20221128-1 ii libpipewire-0.3-0 0.3.65-3 ii libpulse0 16.1+dfsg1-2+b1 ii libqt5core5a 5.15.8+dfsg-11 ii libqt5dbus5 5.15.8+dfsg-11 ii libqt5gui5 5.15.8+dfsg-11 ii libqt5qml5 5.15.8+dfsg-3 ii libqt5widgets5 5.15.8+dfsg-11 ii libstdc++6 12.2.0-14 ii libswscale6 7:5.1.3-1 ii libusb-1.0-0 2:1.0.26-1 ii libuvc0 0.0.6-2 ii libv4l-0 1.22.1-5+b2 ii libvlc5 3.0.18-2 webcamoid-plugins recommends no packages. webcamoid-plugins suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
