Quod Libet Help Needed

brent

this beloved repo app finally blew up with a repeating error on launch.

I uninstalled.

Then I rmo'd.

Then I reinstalled.

But am forbidden.

$ sudo eopkg it quodlibet

[sudo] password for brent:

Program terminated.

gstreamer-1.0 release >= 122 dependency of package rygel is not satisfied

Please use 'eopkg help' for general help.

Rygel is installed. gstreamer-1.0 is not in repo.

Question: how do I get quodlibet back?

Thanks

EDIT: rebooted sys, same message

Harvey

Cherry-picked fix. Update and try again.

brent

was able to reinstall, thank you.

but not launch

$ quodlibet

Segmentation fault (core dumped) quodlibet

thanks for getting me this far. sure it's something simple

Harvey

Not sure atm and I need to run. Hopefully someone else can look. At least it wouldn't break for people trying to upgrade now.

EDIT: For the record quodlibet launched for me without issue if that helps in troubleshooting. Might be specific functionality idk.

Can you paste the output of eopkg li | grep "gstreamer"

pomon

And try:

mv ~/.config/quodlibet ~/.config/quodlibet.bak 
quodlibet

If it still crashes, get more logs:

quodlibet --debug > log.txt 2>&1

You can also clear the cache: rm -rf ~/.cache/quodlibet

brent

pomon mv ~/.config/quodlibet ~/.config/quodlibet.bak
quodlibet

that launched it 🙂

I cleared cache for good measure.

When I get home from work I will rock out for a while and see if the fix holds then mark you the solution @pomon

thank you very much

***And thank you all for trying

Harvey

Tried to re-create your setup. Fresh Budgie VM install, on the Budgie 10.10 testing repo. No issues.

🤷‍♂️

brent

brent pomon mv ~/.config/quodlibet ~/.config/quodlibet.bak
quodlibet

I do believe it's OK now.

What exactly happened with this command. Something got moved or swapped @pomon? Curious. And thank you

pomon

brent The new version of Quod Libet probably had an issue with your existing Quod Libet config directory.

The mv ~/.config/quodlibet ~/.config/quodlibet.bak command simply renamed the old config folder instead of deleting it, so it could easily be restored if needed.

When Quod Libet started again, it didn’t find the old config directory, so it created a fresh clean one automatically — and that seems to have fixed the crash.

Indeed so, it reset everything. I've done that trick before, I remember. I'm working from home and rocking out. Sublime. Thanks for indulging me.
