Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: dvdrip-queue
The dvdrip-queue program (0.1.3-0.1ubuntu2 on maverick, and probably all
the other releases) uses an invalid name in the ConfigParser module.
When you go to the app's preferences and attempt to change the
directory, the below happens:
sa...@trogdor:~$ dvdrip-queue
/usr/bin/dvdrip-queue.real:53: GtkWarning: Ignoring the separator setting
self.wTree = gtk.glade.XML(self.gladefile)
(dvdrip-queue.real:21217): libglade-WARNING **: could not find a parent that
handles internal children for `vbox'
loading *.rip files... done
/usr/share/dvdrip-queue/dvdripQueue/prefsWindow.py:32: GtkWarning:
GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated
self.wTree = gtk.glade.XML(self.gladefile)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/dvdrip-queue/dvdripQueue/prefsWindow.py", line 113, in
applyPrefs
config.add_section("DEFAULT")
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 242, in add_section
raise ValueError, 'Invalid section name: %s' % section
ValueError: Invalid section name: DEFAULT
Note that it's trying to use a section in teh config file named DEFAULT.
That's not an allowed section name. If I open up
/var/lib/mythtv/videos/tmp//swc2/avi/006/audio-video-psu/swc2-006-av-psu-00.av
and replace all instances of DEFAULT with some other string - I used "jimmie" -
it suddenly works fine. This is not surprising, since all case variantrs of
default are ignored by the functions being called:
http://docs.python.org/library/configparser.html#ConfigParser.RawConfigParser.add_section
This code could never possibly work; I'm not sure how it was released since
it clearly has never been tested.
Therefore, my suggestion is to change the string DEFAULT to pretty much
any word other than default.
I would have reported this on the project Sourceforge page, but there
doesn't appear to be a bug reporting area defined for the project. :/
