Bug#858945: gnome-music: No cover art for any of the albums

[Alberto Garcia]

Package: gnome-music
Version: 3.22.2-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is a problem with gnome-music, libmediaart,
tracker, grilo, ... so I'm reporting it here because that's where the
problem is visible.

What happens is that when I launch gnome-music it doesn't show the
cover art of any of the albums in my collection, even though all
folders have a valid cover.jpg file.

This used to work not so long ago so it looks like a regression.
Rebuilding the tracker database doesn't help.

The strace output shows that the app tries to find the thumbnails, but
it doesn't try to create them (notice also how it tries to look for
libmediaart-2.0.so.0 in a folder where it is not installed btw).

Regards,

Berto
