Firefly (mt-daapd) crashing on startup

[Missionary Man]

I'm running 8.04 on a headless server with Firefly (mt-daapd) serving my iTunes library to 2 Roku Soundbridges.

All worked fine for a long time, but recently, mt-daapd crashes on startup. Here's the logfile:

Can anyone help or advise?

Yeah, apparently there's a bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mt-daapd/+bug/343069). See that link for a patch and instructions on how to use it. I don't know when they'll release a fixed package, but I hope it's soon.
