           Summary: new basetransform changes cause crash in farsight2
                    python test
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS

          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: tester at tester.ca
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


The newly-committed changes to basetransform cause the farsight2 python gui
test to crash in random places.. I believe it must try to access some long-ago
freed memory somewhere..

to reproduce you need: the farsight git master
(http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/tester/farsight2.git;a=summary) and
gst-plugins-farsight 0.12.9 (the latest release) as well as the latest CVS
versioin of the various gstreamer packages.

then go into farsight2/tests/gui and run "python fs2-gui.py" .. click on "new
server" and wait for crash.. it if does crash, quit and try again (it doesnt
happen every time).
