Re: [Banshee-List] New Experience

[Frank <funtastix googlemail com>]

Hi Brandon,

that is due to recent changes in Banshee where everything was finally
switched from "banshee-1" (from old times) to "banshee". This change
is fairly recent and therefore the BCE builds are affected by it if
you are not running the very latest Banshee. I ran into the same
problem and ended up installing and building Banshee from git which
resolved the issue. You could be fine just installing the lastest
build from the banshee daily ppa if you're using ubuntu.
