How frequent is this for people ?
One stack trace points to the C generated vala playlist code ...
Very hard to tell. Any more information would be very useful.

Could it be related to uninstalling rhythmbox? I did that and I got this message when I started banshee.

In my case, I did not touch Rhytmbox. The bug (indicator-related,
marked as duplicate to this one) occured during installation of
daily-build Banshee from ppa (it was "fresh" installation, not an
update). As there was no visible breakdowns in my system's workflow, I
guess it could have been false alert. (but I don't know a thing about
programming, so just sent a report, like computer advised...).

I got this crash when I did "delete from drive" on an MP3 in banshee. It wasn't the currently playing track, but it was on the same album, and so would have played at some point in the future.

(If it wasn't obvious, an earlier track from same album was playing when I did the delete.)

Can anyone reproduce this everytime ?

I can't reproduce it now. Perhaps it's a one time per reboot thing? I've only seen it once, and I only reboot every week or so.

Yeah it's a real random memory corruption but I think we may have identified something in the C generated vala code, report back in a bit.
