[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 642696] Re: banshee freezes shortly after start

[ortylp]

The "message" is not from banshee but from me :)

It was upgrade from Ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 (beta?).

I could upload the database, but I do not wan to to make this file public.
I would gladly transfer the file to someone who would use it for debugging of the problem and not make the file public.

Let me know whom should I send the file.
It is 55MB large and I have a backup copy of it not touched by the new banshee version.

Thanks,


Paul

Bug description:
Binary package hint: banshee

Banshee freezes shortly after start.
UNABLE TO READ OLD DATABASE AFTER UPGRADE!

Most likely the problem is at import of old banshee.db.
Removing all data from ~/.config/banshee resolves the problem, but there is no way to import old database.

The start with empty config directory is OK, after copying old banshee.db into its old place the symptom gets back.
Vacuuming the database as suspected had also no effect.

It means, that I have to downgrade Ubuntu or at list custom-compile old banshee to get my podcast database back.

Maybe some kind of import/export functionality on banshee upgrade would help.
Rebuilding and or validating the database might also help.
