Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.9.3.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #354730


I have gigs of space on the disk, so that's not the problem.

Got similar results:

Copy the .gnome2/rhythmbox dir
Remove rhythmbox-applet from panel

dpkg -r rhythmbox-applet rhythmbox 
dpkg -i rhythmbox-applet_0.1.7-1_amd64.deb rhythmbox_0.8.8-13_amd64.deb

Add applet again.
Press play on it to open Rhythmbox.
Play something.
Start Synaptic, then upgrade.
Close RB.
Dir is the same as the copy.
Start RB again (now 0.9). I did this twice with two different results:
1) First time, opened slowly (took a long time refreshing the song 
list). 
On closing it, rhythmdb.xml is now smaller than the copy.
2) Second time, RB hung when reading the song list. I killed it 
eventually, then started it again. It showed the correct number of 
songs, but kept showing "Loading.." even after hitting that total. I 
closed it with the window's X button OK. This time rhythmdb.xml has grown!

Note that I started with the already corrupted db as I hadn't backed 
that up when I hit this.
