Segmentation Fault When Press Play

Asked by Andy

Hi I installed Ubuntu 10.10 and installed gcdmaster from the repos. I can import a wav file into it but when i press play it crashes rendering gcdmaster totally unusable(critically broken)in 10.10 AMD64. I found some info here that may have something to do with this issue. Ihttp://<email address hidden>/msg807440.html
s anyone aware of the problem?

Thanks as it is now its not useable at all in 10.10 AMD64

unfortunately, without a backtrace, as that guy provided, this will be hard to nail down.

It is *possible*, but difficult, to rebuild the package with that patch applied, just for your computer.

-> you would have to (as per here http://www.moosechips.com/2008/09/ubuntu-rebuild-a-source-package/)

sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot dpkg-dev devscripts
sudo apt-get source cdrdao

-> go into the newly created cdrdao directory:
cd cdr-1.2.3

-> Modify the code by using the information from that patch
wget 'http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=gcdmaster.patch;att=1;bug=590647' -O cdrdao-patch
patch -p1 < cdrdao-patch
dch -l 'apatch'

->Assuming the above went off without a hitch, install dependencies needed for build
sudo apt-get build-dep cdrdao

dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b

-> then this will make two *.deb files in the above directory.
cd ..
dpkg -i *deb

And you are done. There are no guarantees that this will do anything other than provide you with a patched version. It may still not work.

Can you help with this problem?
