Bug Description

Steps to reproduce crash in Audacity built from system sbsms

1 Download Lola.mp3 from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7u-ChIr3ATUeXh4Ql9BQ2pMNEtSNGlUS3pUTkExY3JPb0VB/edit?usp=sharing .
2 Import Lola.mp3 into Audacity and apply Sliding Time Scale to the whole track at settings of Initial Tempo -30 and Final Tempo -30.

Benjamin Drung has already uploaded libsbsms 2.0.2-1 which fixes the issue to Debian unstable. It will migrate to Debian testing after five days without errors and it will be synced to Ubuntu and be part of Ubuntu 14.10. This bug is to fix the issue by patching the older sbsms in 14.04.

I just tried now with Audacity HEAD built with system libsbsms 2.0.1-1 on Ubuntu 14.04, and there is no crash.

However I could not reproduce the bug in Audacity HEAD built with system libsbsms 2.0.1-1 on Ubuntu 13.10, until I installed the 2.0.3 package of Audacity. The 2.0.3 package crashed every time on the whole track at Initial and Final 30% and also at Initial -30 %, Final 30% or Initial and Final -30%. Then after uninstalling the 2.0.3 package but without reinstalling HEAD, HEAD also crashed on that Lola MP3 using Sliding Time Scale.

I assume the user Oliver uses packaged versions of Audacity, but I don't know why that makes a difference. Have you tried the Audacity package on 14.04?
