Hi ! Thanks to an input from Christian Marillat, I realize that there is an issue with this fix.
Indeed, when there will be a soname update, the plugin files will conflict. Futhermore, there is no reason for adding the plugins into the lib binary package, since applications should work quite well without them. Christian proposed to add a Depends: gmerlin to libgmerlin0, but I don't think this is a good idea since it would create a circular dependency between gmerlin and libgmerlin0. I have tested the openmovieeditor package currently packaged in debian (version 0.0.20080102-2.2) and it is not affected by this issue. However, I can reproduce it by manually compiling the latest upstream version (0.0.20090105): Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007ffff67de1bc in bg_singlepic_input_info () from /usr/lib/libgmerlin.so.0 (gdb) bt #0 0x00007ffff67de1bc in bg_singlepic_input_info () from /usr/lib/libgmerlin.so.0 #1 0x00007ffff67d9086 in bg_plugin_registry_create () from /usr/lib/libgmerlin.so.0 #2 0x0000000000463681 in GmerlinFactory (this=0x7fffffffe3f0, menu=0x1ee7300) at GmerlinFactory.cxx:34 #3 0x000000000042099b in main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffe5f8) at nle_main.cxx:136 Hence, the issue lies in openmovieeditor and not in libgmerlin0. The two possible solutions are either to create a standalone gmerlin-plugins package, or to put back the plugins into the gmerlin package. In either case, when packaging the new upstream release of openmovieeditor, it should be needed to *manually* add a dependency to one of these package. It needs to be manunal since it is not detected by ldd and the usual shlib system. Since the current gmerlin package is very small, I propose to add back the plugins there. This would also avoid passing through the NEW queue, which is a nightmare. Romain -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-multimedia-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
