Mpd crashes when creating database

Hi everyone,

I have problem with mpd, which, after some testing I already filed into the here. Unfortunately I found this afterwards.

Anywho, since neither me nor cirrus could reproduce this crash my ticket will most likely be closed. Since me and the other bug reporter are running arch on x86_64 I thought the problem may lie in the packages distributed in the pacman repositories? Or maybe someone else here ran into the same problem?

Thanks in advance.

Btw, running arch 64bit on dell xps m1530 (core 2 duo, 4gb ram), mpd and libmad up-to-date with pacman repositories

Re: Mpd crashes when creating database

Sorry for reviving this old thread, but if anyone runs into this problem, I found a (not very satisfying) solution: I let mpd create its database with a very reduced subset of my music library, making sure it wouldn't crash this time. Then I gradually added the rest of the folders. Not very efficient, but at least I got mpd running.
