i've got two computers both running fc17 and both have xbmc installed from the rpmfusion repo. xbmc was working fine on both until the following updates were applied :

libmikmod-3.2.0-15.fc17 Mon 16 Jul 2012 06:37:12 PM BST
mysql-libs-5.5.25a-1.fc17 Mon 16 Jul 2012 06:37:08 PM BST

bash-4.2.36-1.fc17 Mon 16 Jul 2012 06:36:29 PM BST

but now, whenever i try and play any kind of media file, xbmc crashes with :

*** glibc detected *** /usr/lib64/xbmc/xbmc.bin: double free or corruption (out): 0x00007f00485b5f60 ***

full crash log is attached.

does anyone know which update could be the culprit ?

having done some testing, downgrading :

libmikmod-3.2.0-15.fc17.x86_64

to :

libmikmod-3.2.0-13.beta2.fc17.x86_64

has resolved the problem.

I had the same problem and for me the same solution worked (thanks!). We should probably report this as a bug somewhere. I'm a very recent convert to Fedora however, so not sure where to report this. Any ideas?

glad to hear downgrading worked for you too.

it will be on the redhat bugzilla system (https://bugzilla.redhat.com). i usually find someone has beaten me to it but i can't see anything for this. i'll raise a bug tomorrow.
