On my amd64 Debian/testing (squeeze) running gstreamer-properties creates a file "registry.x86_64.bin" in the .gstreamer-0.10 directory.
After that Pidgin runs fine. When I remove that file and restart Pidgin it crashes. Running "gstreamer-properties" again creates the file again and Pidgin runs well. h...@amd64:~$ mv .gstreamer-0.10/registry.x86_64.bin /tmp/ h...@amd64:~$ pidgin ERROR: Caught a segmentation fault while loading plugin file: /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstfrei0r.so Please either: - remove it and restart. - run with --gst-disable-segtrap and debug. h...@amd64:~$ gstreamer-properties (gst-plugin-scanner:3766): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_param_spec_internal: assertion `(name[0] >= 'A' && name[0] <= 'Z') || (name[0] >= 'a' && name[0] <= 'z')' failed ERROR: Caught a segmentation fault while loading plugin file: /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstfrei0r.so Please either: - remove it and restart. - run with --gst-disable-segtrap and debug.
