Libcec 3.0.1 segfault on Ubuntu 15.04

[rome1983]

libcec segfaults when cec adapter plugged in on boot and kodi doesn't start. If I unplug cec adapter kodi starts. If I plug the cec adapter in after kodi starts it works, but the first time i did it kodi crashed. I have 2 pulse-eight adapters one internal and the other external getting the same results. All was fine before update.

Just installed openelec 5.95.4 and it works as expected. Openelec version of libcec is 3.0.0.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have the same issue since 3 weeks on my Kodi running on a x86 14.04 box. Kodi is crashing in a loop following a segfault in libcec when the dongle is connected.

[rome1983]

After a few fresh installs it finally started working again. Still don't know what the problem was.

[ravens]

Reinstalled the libcec package from the PPA, no effect.

[rome1983]

I was reinstalling the whole os. I use Ubuntu 15.04 server and the xbmc stable ppa.

fix can be found here and will be merged in in the next update: #133
