Bug#466145: elisa: Does not start.

[htpc]

Package: elisa
Version: 0.3.2-1
Severity: important

If I attempt to run elisa, I am given the following error message.

Interstingly, I attempted to build the version 0.3.3-1 version from
experimental svn, and I was given the same error. I don't believe that I
have installed any odd packages, but I do have some of the
debian-multimedia packages installed.
