[Bug 33710] Crashes on startup on powerpc with xine-engine

[Juergen Kreileder]

Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/33710

Affects: amarok (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Package: amarok
Version: 2:1.3.8-0ubuntu6
Severity: important

amarok crashes right after starting on my ppc system.  The crash occurs
in xine_probe_fast_memcpy.

I've seen the same problem with the xine engine on Debian some time
ago (see http://bugs.debian.org/327266).
On Debian I can work around the problem by using the gstreamer engine,
unfortunately that engine is no longer available in dapper.
