This is probably what happens when you install your build in /usr/local and leave the Ubuntu package installed. When you try to run your build, it'll pick up libraries from the packaged version, which usually won't work. I'd suggest using a different install location, such as $HOME/local/rhythmbox, which you can do by passing the --prefix=<location> argument to ./configure. Alternatively, you could use the packages from my PPA: https://launchpad.net/~jmatthew/+archive/ppa which generally keeps up with releases and sometimes has prereleases. This will replace the Ubuntu package version. _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
