Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

I tried manually sorting some tracks from the bottom of a large static playlist, but as soon as I clicked and dragged them, the playlist instantly scrolled near the top. This happens for any track/s in a large (300+) static playlist that aren't already near the top. I am not moving the mouse near the borders which would normally cause slow scrolling. Once at the top of the playlist, it's impossible to scroll back down while holding the songs. This is a regression as I could previously move tracks without this problem.

For anyone looking for a solution to this in Jaunty, a deb for 0.12.2 is available at getdeb.net that fixes the problem.

note that new version can have other issues are not as well translated and installing deb from getdeb might break upgrades to the next ubuntu version and create issues on your system or not get security updates so it's something you should think about before installing a random deb from there

This is a very visible bug without an easy workaround. It may be a candidate for Jaunty SRU.
