[gst-devel] nasty cothread bug (apparently)

[Bastien Nocera]

Heya,

I wanted to test out the endian fix for vorbisdec Wim told me about. So,
I already have gstreamer 0.4.0 installed from taaz' debs, recompiled and
all. Vorbisdec plays but with the "loud ssshhhh" (it doesn't work, but
doesn't crash). On to fix that.

I built the packages, and I didn't keep the sources around. So I get the
package's source (so exact same sources as previously). I then run
"fakeroot debian/rules configure" in the unpacked sources (so same
configuration options for the config). Finally I compile and install the
(non-modified) vorbisdec plugin. "Illegal operation".

bt from:
$ gst-launch  filesrc location="/home/hadess/Music/keoki_passiton.ogg" !
vorbisdec ! osssink

Here is the backtrace:
#0  0x0fac74d8 in sigset () from /lib/libc.so.6

Note, that the gstreamer headers (0.4.0) are the same (debs), and that
the only thing I change is the vorbis plugin. "apt-get install
--reinstall gstreamer-vorbis" and it's back running properly.

And here goes the weird stuff. If I substitute the filepath by the one
of an mp3, and vorbisdec by mad (with still the broken plugin
installed), same crash.

And I repeat again, just to make sure, reinstalling the plugin from the
package fixed it.

Anybody has an idea ?

Cheers
