Bug#807805: vlc: Crash upon startup

2015-12-13 Thread Hormet Yiltiz 
Package: vlc
Version: 2.2.1-5+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
   After a recent system upgrade in Debian Testing, `vlc` cannot start
   and crashes reporting:
   "QSystemTrayIcon::setVisible: No Icon set"
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
   This is reproducable in my environment. I am running i3wm installed
   alongside with KDE5. Reinstalling or reconfiguring `vlc` did not
   solve the issue.
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   VLC crash upon startup. 
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   VLC starts normally.

Bug#807805: vlc: Crash upon startup

2015-12-13 Thread Hörmetjan Yiltiz 
​I realized that vlc only crashes in my i3wm setup, but does not crash if
started from the KDE5 environment. ​

Bug#807805: vlc: Crash upon startup

2015-12-13 Thread Hörmetjan Yiltiz 
calling `vlc --no-qt-system-tray` will start vlc and is an effective
workaround.

Best,
Hörmet

Please install vlc-dbg and qtbase5-dbg and provide a full backtrace.
