I experienced the same problem after doing a Medibuntu-recommended security upgrade of its ffmpeg and a number of its library packages. After installing the following packages as updates, I encountered this bug in Kaffeine:
ffmpeg_3%3a0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1.1_i386.deb libavcodec1d_3%3a0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1.1_i386.deb libavformat1d_3%3a0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1.1_i386.deb libavutil1d_3%3a0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1.1_i386.deb libpostproc1d_3%3a0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1.1_i386.deb libswscale1d_3%3a0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1.1_i386.deb Deleting ~/.xine and restarting Kaffeine solved the problem. I will report this to the Medibuntu folks as well. -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on "Codec package is already installed" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
