Trying to update 2ManDVD to its latest version

[Agent Smith]

Dear friends,

I'm trying to update 2ManDVD to its latest version.
I did the following steps:

1º Grabbed the current src.rpm from our repos
2º Got the latest source, from http://download.tuxfamily.org/2mandvd/2ManDVD-1.8.4.tar.gz
3º Made the source compliant to PCLOS standards, in tar.xz
4º Built the package with rpmbuild -ba
5º It ends ok, without no error.

But, then, when I try to run the program, it gives a seg fault error and doesn't work.
Its splash screen even blinks at the screen, and nothing happens.

Would you have any ideas of what could be possibly wrong here ?

Thanks in advance,

Awaiting your response,

I send my best regards

Sometimes packages are incompatible with a specific version of a library, but don't correctly report the problem when building. What are the listed dependencies? I would take the list and look at the developer's website and google for any reports of incompatible library versions. Then, I would contact the developer for additional help.

The required dependencies are the following (copied from its spec file)

 
Requires: ffmpegthumbnailer
Requires: fonts-ttf-dejavu
Requires: ffmpeg
Requires: sox
Requires: mplayer
Requires: mencoder
Requires: dvdauthor
Requires: mjpegtools
Requires: netpbm
Requires: libxine1
Requires: exif
Requires: transcode
BuildRequires: libqt4-devel >= 4.6
BuildRequires: qt4-designer
BuildRequires: libffmpeg-devel
BuildRequires: libSDL-devel

Requires: glibc >= 2.10.1
Requires: libstdc++6 >= 4.4.1

But, it's all ok with the current Qt libs of PCLinuxOS...

Thanks Galen,

Do you have libav-devel and ffmpeg-devel installed when building? They seem to be creating a conflict for miro. Maybe that is the case with 2ManDVD, also. If so, try removing libav-devel and then rebuild it.

One of its dependencies is libffmpeg-devel, but it does not include libav-devel.
I will contact his creator.
Perhaps he can shed some light on what's going on.

Thanks Galen,

Hi Agent Smith,

do you get errors when you start it from the terminal, please post them her if you get some.

[Agent Smith]

Ok GB,

Here it goes:
[agentsmith@localhost 2ManDVD]$ ./2ManDVD
LOCALE :  "pt"
Falha de segmentação (segmentation fault - My system is in PT_BR)

And that's it...

Not much to work on.

Best regards

Ok,

I've contacted the author, Mr. Stéphane Gibault, and he answered: "C'est des erreurs ffmpeg dont la version trop récente comporte des fonctions dépréciées.... je corrigerai ça à mon retour de vacances "

Translated: "It's ffmpeg errors with too recent version including  deprecated features  .... I will correct it on my return from vacation"

Then, we just have to wait, the author himself will correct the bugs.

Best regards,
