[Banshee-List] New install of Banshee 1.8.0 on Linux Mint 10 crashes on startup

[bytor13 <bytor13 comcast net>]

I recently installed Linux Mint 10 and then added Banshee via synaptic
package manager.  The first time I ran banshee, I checked out what features
were available, then quit without incident.  When I returned to banshee
later, it quit immediately after opening without any prompting from me. 
Running from the terminal gives the same behavior with the following output:

[Info  17:07:04.104] Running Banshee 1.8.0: [Ubuntu 10.10 (linux-gnu, i686)

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling banshee several times with and
without deleting the .config/banshee-1 directory and all its contents with
no change in the behavior.  I checked the forums and saw no other references
to this problem so I'm guessing I missed something simple.  Anybody have any
ideas?
