I enabled Replay Gain in Rhythmbox and the program closed and now I cannot open the program at all. If I run it from terminal I am met with:



/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gobject/constants.py:24: Warning: g_boxed_type_register_static: assertion `g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed
import gobject._gobject
TypeError: metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases
**
ERROR:/build/buildd/pygobject-3.0.0/gi/_gobject/pygobject.c:929:pygobject_new_full: assertion failed: (tp != NULL)
Aborted


If I uninstall the "plugins for rhythmbox music player" package, Rhythmbox opens, obviously missing all of the plugins.



I am assuming there's a config file or folder somewhere enabling all of the plugins I selected when I re-install the "plugins for rhythmbox music player" package because when I re-install the package, the issue occurs again.



Any ideas?

Ok This was a tricky one. It turns out there was no issue with the Replay Gain plugin but rather the Magnatune plugin. What I needed to do was disable it being loaded when opening Rhythmbox by doing this:



  1. Alt + F2 and entering dconf-editor

  2. Navigating to org > gnome > rhythmbox > plugins

  3. Removed the magnatune entry from active-plugins

  4. (Don't know if this helped) navigated further within the Rhythmbox plugins menu to magnatune > source and deselected show-browser
