Public bug reported:
I am using Ubuntu 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-30-generic x86_64. The
version of gstreamer1.0-libav:amd64 is 1.2.4-1~ubuntu1. I did not
install gstreamer1.0-libav:i386.
Before this problem emerges I was trying to recover a broken gnome
desktop, during which process, I first reinstalled all packages related
to display and then downgraded them by editing /etc/apt/preferences (
Pin: release a=trusty* ).
The old problem about gnome desktop was then solved. However, now I get
new problems with gstreamer1.0-libav:amd64.
Every time I boot into Ubuntu, from the result of dmesg, I will always
be able to find that libgstlibav.so crashed because of segfault. It is
right after this error message appears that my laptop will start to
heat, even if I do not launch any application.
The temperature of my laptop is now 20 centigrade degrees higher than
normal. And I have tried to uninstall the gstreamer1.0-libav package,
which does solve the heat problem.
However, the 'apt' package system thinks that gnome desktop depends on
gstreamer1.0-libav, although actually everything worked well without the
package. Thus I have to manually create fake packages to have gnome not
depend on it.
