Picard 2.8.2 crashing on particular album lookup

MusicBrainz Picard
1

I installed this latest release and have successfully tagged about 20 albums, but this latest one causes Picard to crash when I try the Lookup feature. That same album clusters okay, and also scans okay - the problem is only with lookup. I don’t see any funky characters in the filenames.

I started a debug session in a dos window, and have the result copied into the attached text file. It’s complete up to the crash. Since this album scans okay, I can work around the issue - but thought you would be interested in the error…

So it appears I can’t attach a text file. I’ll paste it below, then - sorry for the length.

Okay, so it’s too long to paste here. Plz let me know how to submit.

Thanks!

If you enter a ticket in the tracking system you should be able to attch the full text file. This also ensures that your issue isn’t lost and progress can be tracked.

Thanks. I didn’t want to presume I could open a ticket without being asked.

No problem. Anybody can open a ticket, and that’s actually the best way of tracking a bug report. Thanks.

So thanks to the detailed information of @ecomaniac I think we are now on track to get this fixed. Looks like this is a combination of bad data in the tags and a sorting bug in Picard. That specific combination made it a bit difficult to debug without knowing the root cause. For details see the ticket:
