Rhythmbox not starting for anyone else?

samteezy

Since the last sync, it won't launch in the UI, and running it in terminal presents the following:

$ rhythmbox

(rhythmbox:39166): libsoup-ERROR **: 15:26:58.813: libsoup2 symbols detected. Using libsoup2 and libsoup3 in the same process is not supported.
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

Edit: it looks like libsoup3 was updated in the most recent sync, but I don't see a corresponding libsoup2 package, so I'm not sure where the problem lies.

samteezy budgie/cannot corroborate.
I feel confident saying different things broke for different users. Check for broken packages.

pomon

samteezy Rhythmbox works for me
system: Host: solus Kernel: 5.15.68-218.current arch: x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: Budgie v: 10.6.4 Distro: Solus 4.3 fortitude

Libraries libsoup:
eopkg li | grep libsoup libsoup - GNOME HTTP client/server library libsoup3 - GNOME HTTP client/server library

Show yours libsoup.

brent FYI, I did... I am getting the same error as another user posted here regarding the gdk-pixbuf package, but nothing else. Did some of the usual steps like rdb and rerunning usysconf, rebooting, etc.

brent

samteezy gdk pixbuf is ok (they are cleaning it up) and unrelated to this package or any package failures asfaik.

edit: known issue at devtracker? haven't looked

samteezy

brent Is there a way to roll back to a specific package version without having to roll back the entire upgrade I did from the sync?

I have a hard time searching devtracker so I was checking here first, but I'll log it shortly

brent

eopkg history gives you a number. Choose the number before the last update. I did this once years ago so check again in eopkg help.( -t [--takeback] arg : Takeback to the state after the given operation
finished)

something like sudo eopkg -t yournumberhere. I hope.

brent

oh yeah. one person yesterday tried to rollback to fix an app and it sure got fixed but two more broke because of a deprecated package in last update. so it may be best to wait out the r-box thing

EbonJaeger

Added this to the GNOME 43 issues task. Rhythmbox uses libsoup 2, but likely one of the packages it depends on now uses libsoup 3, causing the conflict. Hopefully something simple... Thanks for the report!

samteezy

pomon I'd forgotten about this thread. Still having the issue. Output of mine:

eopkg li | grep libsoup libsoup - GNOME HTTP client/server library libsoup-32bit - 32-bit libraries for libsoup libsoup3 - GNOME HTTP client/server library libsoup3-32bit - 32-bit libraries for libsoup3
Wonder what would happen if I remove those 32 bit libs?

sangheeta

no problem here also.

olivir

Same for me with just 2 libsoup

eopkg li | grep libsoup
libsoup                                     - GNOME HTTP client/server library
libsoup3                                    - GNOME HTTP client/server library

olivir

Rhythmbox works again for you ?

brent

2 months ago I said it launched in Budgie. Now it launches in Mate. Beach ball spins a few seconds, but it launched.

olivir

Lucky man, mine is always out of service. 🤨

terminal launched fine and output looks normal.
As for yours: "Could not open device /dev/radio0" I don't get that at all. RB is being seen as a volume?

"libsoup-ERROR **: 19:23:21.749: libsoup2 symbols detected. Using libsoup2 and libsoup3 in the same process is not supported." ---that could be just what it says. Maybe you brought in one of the libsoups with some build you did or some outside app? smells like a conflict but I'm not a pro.

eopkg info libsoup will tell you what its dependencies are

olivir

You're surely right, a conflict is very possible. eopkg info libsoup indicates a lot of Reverse Dependencies :

olivir I get it now I'm really dense today: you edited. 1st output is installed package rev deps. 2nd output is identical uninstalled repo version rev deps. between ours I could note nothing significant that stood out to me

brent

^^ deleted everything I had to say. you have 2 lists of reverse deps. I thought you were showing the standard output: dependencies then reverse dep. Negated my point, so hence the axe edit.

EbonJaeger

This issue is listed on the dev tracker here. As yet, no-one has done anything about it. :/

brent

EbonJaeger that explains the libsoup version conflict in his initial output:
"rhythmbox: libsoup version mismatch causes it to segfault on open. Rhythmbox uses libsoup 2, but grilo (a dependency of Rhythmbox) uses libsoup 3."
