[ATrpms-devel] XMMS broke

[Paulo Cavalcanti]

No, nothing more is printed, only the line I sent to you.
After that, I have to kill it (ctrl C).
xmms was working fine last night. What I did after that was:

upgraded flac and libogg from atrpms.
upgraded wxGTK to 2.6.2 from freshrpms (removed
wxGTK and wxGTK2 from extras).
upgraded audacity, vlc and xchm as a consequence.

This morning, the only thing broke was xmms.
Digging the net, I saw people complaining about flac plugin and xmms in
several distros.

I also tried xmms from fedora extras with the same result.

So, I created a script to start xmms disabling the malloc test.
