[Bug 482991] Re: Brasero hangs at "Get Size" process on 64bit Ubuntu 9.1

[Levente Torok]

Hi All,

I prepared for generating backtrace in a manner written down here.
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash
However I couldn't start
/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/brasero
neither in bash
 lev at red:~/04$  /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/brasero
 bash: /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/brasero: cannot execute binary file
nor in gdb

lev at red:~/04$ gdb /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/brasero 2>&1 | tee ~/gdb-brasero.txt

/bin/bash: /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/brasero: cannot execute binary file

so I started brasero manually and tried to test if bug still exists.
And it seems to be gone. However I don't know if there were any
software update since my reporting of this bug.
May be some of the libraries on which it relies seem to get a root of
this bug solved hiddenly.
Anyway.
I cannot report on this issue anymore.

Levente

ps: one more idea! At the time of the reporting. My machine was pretty
full of data could it be that brasero cannot
generate some auxiliary file and to check the size accordingly?
