The following commands upgraded the lastfm player and QT libs on 2008.0 and
brought it into a working state. Technically I don't think we needed to upgrade
lastfm-player and it was the QT libs that was the real problem.

urpmi.update Backports

urpmi --media Backports libqtcore4 libqtscript4 libqtdesigner1 libqtxml4
libqtnetwork4 qt4-common libqt3support4 libqtgui4 libqtsql4 libqtsvg4
lastfm-player


So currently, there is still an error with a fully updated 2008.0 setup when
not using any backports repository which is not really ideal but I don't think
it's important enough to worry about unless other QT based apps are affected. I
know you said that I could close this bug but as I'm not 100% as to the knock
on effects, I'll leave it for some QT people to close :)


As an aside, there is a bit of a problem with lastfm-player's
separation/security... I was showing how pulseaudio would allow me to run the
lastfm-player on my colleagues machine and have the visual display and sound
output on my machine through the magic of the X11 and pulse piggy backing on to
it. He had lastfm-player running as his user on his machine and I ssh'ed in as
my user. When I tried to lauch it, rather than starting a new instance it just
activated his instance - pulling it out of the system tray and opening the gui
on his display. This shows there is a lack of user separation with the player
which is bad!!! My user should not have been able to interfere with his. I'll
report this upstream at some point.



------ Original Bug Text: ------

Description of problem:
When launching lastfm-player it cannot connect to the network to play streams... which makes it pretty useless.

"Couldn't load radio service 'httpinput'. The radio will not work."

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Latest 2008.0 lastfm-player + qt4 updates

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Fully up to date 2008
2. Launch lastfm-player.


I'm putting this against the qt4 srpm as it's likley this could be a qt4 issue that has more impact than just lastfm-player.
