OK, fair enough.
I've been testing audacious for a while, after installing debug symbols:

  # aptitude install audacious-dbg

by using the following script:

  $ cat debug-audacious.sh 
  #!/bin/sh
  
  if ! diff ~/tmp/config-audacious-config_SAVE ~/.config/audacious/config
  then
      cp -ai ~/tmp/config-audacious-config_SAVE ~/.config/audacious/config
  fi
  rm -f gdb.txt
  
  gdb audacious2 << EOF
  set pagination 0
  thread apply all bt full
  set logging on
  run
  bt
  quit
  EOF


I was hoping to see a segfault and provide a backtrace.
I have seen no segfaults...
Of course, Murphy's law implies that I will see one, as soon as I
remove audacious-dbg and stop running it under gdb!   ;-)

I think this bug should be closed for the time being.

Should I experience other segfaults, I will try to reproduce them under
gdb and I will open a separate bug report with a backtrace.

Bye and thanks.
