The same problem on fresh install of kubuntu 8.04.1 on Asus Eeepc 900 (kernel 2.6.24-20-eeepc).
The interesting aspect: the "installation-loop" happens when I try to open non-trivial media file from samba share. By non-trivial I mean .mp4 video file (sound AAC, video x264). However, usual .avi (xvid, mp3) from same share works well. And - important point - this is no such bug when I try to open the very same .mp4 being copied from samba share into the local drive. I.e., summary: 1. trying to play smb://someshara/video.mp4 - causes installation loop. 2. trying to play ~/video/video.mp4 - plays ok. -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on "Codec package is already installed" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
