Bug Description

Binary package hint: democracyplayer

I've reported this upstream and am noting here to keep track of it:

I have been testing out the Democracy .deb 0.96 on Feisty. Everything was working fine until I did a video search for "linux" in Yahoo! video. I got search listings, and then queued up a video to download (I don't remember the specific one), and then Democracy Player froze. I killed the instance, but now it freezes/hangs on startup. Here's the output from the command line:

 /usr/bin/democracyplayer.real:81: DeprecationWarning: The dbus_bindings module is deprecated and will go away soon.

dbus-python 0.80 provides only a partial emulation of the old
dbus_bindings, which was never meant to be public API.

Most uses of dbus_bindings are applications catching the exception
dbus.dbus_bindings.DBusException. You should use dbus.DBusException
instead (this is compatible with all dbus-python versions since 0.40.2).

If you need additional public API, please contact the maintainers via
<email address hidden>.

I have to manually kill it. I have tried leaving it for more than 5 minutes, but it's still hung.
