I submitted a bug for the xmms problem. Recently another person
submitted a very similar bug. He traced it down to the arts patch for
xmms. He left out the patch and it would work on creating an initial
directory.
This bug is pretty old and I could see why closing in on it would be
difficult.
Anyway, if you forcibly install arts from FC1 with --oldpackage --nodeps
and try to launch xmms, it will create the default .xmms directory and
not segfault. Once this directory is created, it is safe to upgrade to
the latest version of arts. Xmms will work, unless you are a new user
(not good)
Thanks to the other user that met the problem in a different way. I
believe it is narrowed down to the new arts changes and will need
changes to the patch for arts - xmms not to conflict.
