How do I fix seg fault in kid3? (piefed.world)

After an update something must have broke. I depend on kid3 (KDE's audio tag editor) and it stopped working. I ran it from Konsole I am greeted by this:

It complains about missing something VDPAU related which I wouldn't think would be relevant. I would be grateful for any help. This is driving me insane.

By translating that string it says it is missing that file (libvdpau_nvidia.so) so if you're actually using an nvidia card you'd want to check on that.

For the time being I'd try running it under X or running it from Konsole by doing something like

QT_QPA_PLATFORM="xcb" kid3

QT_QPA_PLATFORM="wayland" kid3

I'm using an AMD card.

[–] mmmm@sopuli.xyz 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Then it probably is a bug. I'd submit a report

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

The problem is, I couldn't reproduce the issue on another system. To be fair, that one uses Intel graphics where this uses an AMD card if that's what the issue is. Is it still worth doing?

[–] mmmm@sopuli.xyz 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Of course, you don't have a NVIDIA card and still it's asking for it. For much they will mark it as invalid but will point you to find the cause of the problem.

You can just revert to the previous version while you find out what it was.

I use CachyOS, So I can't really revert. I could use the flatpak but it won't use the Oxygen theme and looks really out of place.

After removing libvdpau kid3 works again but now mpv doesn't work because libvdpau is a dependency.

Esperanto in the wild? Weird!

[–] mmmm@sopuli.xyz 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah that caught my attention too. Not sure if OP speaks it or if it's just part of a potential bug.

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

OP is trying to learn it. My system locale is Esperanto. Not a bug, lol.

[–] notnotdying@lemmy.nz 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Bone! Certe interesas ke eĉ la eraroj estas Esperantaj.

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

Nur unuj estas en Esperanto. Lots still hasn't been translated to Esperanto. I still see a lot of English text in my system. Mi ne parolas Esperantan tre bona, mi bedaŭras. Feel free to correct my mistakes lol.
