Package: xmms2
Version: 0.6DrMattDestruction-1
Severity: normal
After upgrading xmms2 and xmms2-core, I couldn't play any music with
xmms2, nor could I add songs to it, nor could I get lists of anything
it's playing.
griffon:~$ xmms2 list
Log output will be stored in /home/greg/.cache/xmms2/xmms2d.log
startup failed!
ERROR: Could not connect to xmms2d: Bad protocol version
Looks like it tried to start another daemon. But I didn't tell it to!
I'm not doing anything funny either:
griffon:~$ type xmms2
xmms2 is hashed (/usr/bin/xmms2)
Hmm, what's this?

the daemon.
