I believe this issue was that banshee tries to use shell redirection to
redirect output to a log in ~/.config/banshee-1/log, but if you're
running it for the first time, that directory doesn't exist and the
shell script in /usr/bin/banshee-1 won't trigger the actual binaries to
run.
Workaround: Create a folder ~/.config/banshee-1, or start Banshee from
the Run dialog
once. Subsequent attempts to start Banshee from the
launcher will work.
Ubuntu and Debian Banshee packages ship with a patch that fixes this
issue. This issue is also fixed in trunk and 1.3.x.
To the Fedora packager, it might be a good idea to ship with the
attached patch, if it isn't already included in the Fedora's Banshee
package.
