Bug#542216: libgnomevfs2-extra: gnome-vfs-daemon periodically crashes due to undefined symbol referenced in libsmb.so

[Peter Nelson]

Package: libgnomevfs2-extra
Version: 1:2.22.0-5
Severity: normal


gnome-vfs-daemon periodically crashes due to an undefined symbol referenced in 
/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/libsmb.so

I first noticed that rhythmbox would randomly restart playing tracks, and tracked it down to 
gnome-vfs-daemon restarting. I put an strace on gnome-vfs-daemon, and the last messages before the 
process detached are:

poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=12, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}, {fd=17, 
events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}], 5, 1155181) = 0 (Timeout)
poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=12, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}, {fd=17, 
events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}], 5, 1800000) = 0 (Timeout)
writev(2, [{"/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/gnome-vfs-"..., 39}, {": "..., 2}, {"symbol lookup error"..., 
19}, {": "..., 2}, {"/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/li"..., 40}, {": "..., 2}, {"undefined symbol: 
smbc_remove_unu"..., 43}, {""..., 0}, {""..., 0}, {"\n"..., 1}], 10) = 148
exit_group(127)                         = ?
Process 3066 detached

The complete symbol name is smbc_remove_unused_server.

The effect of this is that, at least, nautilus will close open windows, and rhythmbox will drop and 
reload its database, making this crash quite awkward. In general smb share browsing does work in 
nautilus.

If libsmb.so is removed, no further crashes are experienced (but of course smb shares are not 
accessible.)
