Rhythmbox throwing error after update/upgrade

garyk · 2022-02-04 20:58:08

I bought a new audio cd a few days ago and ripped it to my hard drive collection which I use Rhythmbox to play my music collection. The new album played fine.

This morning I did an aptitude update/upgrade and after that Rhythmbox throws an error every time I play that one new album: "Your Gstreamer installation is missing a plugin".

I am running ceres. Here is the output from the aptitude update/upgrade.

  aptitude safe-upgrade

Current status: 0 (-16) upgradable.

Anyone have any idea as to what went wrong in the upgrade?

Have you tried full-upgrade? It might be needed for a "clean" upgrade. But it might also break things more.

Random things breaking is to be expected when running ceres. That's why it's also called "unstable"

Safe-upgrade updated all possible packages available.

I've run sid and ceres for decades and I'm still almost always surprised at package breakage. It just doesn't happen very often. And almost always happens when there is a backlog of packages that can't be full-upgraded due to major system package upgrades.

Must be really great to be as smart and knowledgeable as you.

My apologies. I didn't mean to offend.
