[Bug 63477] Re: Synfigstudio crash by startup

[jwmislan]

 I'm posting now on Feburary 11, 2009 about the same 'synfigstudio does not start' bug as I see as far back as april 2008. 
and still not fixed ? - why does the library that gets offered as update not match the binary it belongs to?
My solution would be to test the new library against the original binary, and if it fails offer the update with both, the new library, and functioning binary package.
 
Ubuntu Hardy LTS with ubuntustudio on amd64 laptop here.

I'm getting synfigstudio error message

synfigstudio: Symbol `_ZTVN6synfig17LinkableValueNodeE'  has different size in shared object, consider re-linking
synfig(27521) [01:33:11 AM] error: Size of Canvas mismatch (app:1008, lib:1080)
synfig(27521) [01:33:11 AM] error: Size of Layer mismatch (app:416, lib:464)
FATAL: Synfig Version Mismatch

 I can't uninstall the synfigstudio package either, because there's a dependancy to ubuntu studio-graphics, and I want to keep that.
Anyway the bug still persists - until ubuntu sends out a new synfigstudio binary that matches the updated libsynfig backported version.

 I could downgrade to the original, Hardy libsynfig and synfigstudio works, but then I have to disable backports in my sources list or lock the version that may have security issues or whatever buggy condition.
So I guess we'll have to wait and see if this finally gets re-solved.
