i upgraded from MATE 15.10 to MATE 16.04 LTS yesterday, reinstalled all my software, etc, and this morning noticed scrobbling had stopped. attempts to log back into last.fm through banshee resulted in the same symptoms described above: i press "try again", and banshee freezes for 10 seconds or so (playing continues normally, but the window doesn't update). no browser window/tab is opened.
i tried fiddling with proxy settings, but that didn't change anything. i'm not actually behind a proxy anyway. my previous upgrade (a mere few months ago; from MATE 14.04 to 15.10) went flawlessly -- scrobbling simply continued as before without me having to do a thing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to banshee in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/759619 Title: banshee cannot access last.fm account Status in banshee package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: banshee Banshee asks me: "Account details are needed before you can connect to Last.fm" I'm a subscriber, so no worries there. I'm entering my username (cannot enter a password anywhere, why?) Then I'm asked "You need to allow Banshee to access your Last.fm account", but no matter what or how often I'm clicking, it won't work. See attached screenshots In my last.fm preferences, banshee won't appear as "connected app".
