Thanks for the help, Bill.
I thought the sos was an s.o.s. :D
It had been 16 hours already and I'm on a 1.5meg dsl line so my guess is
the interruption likely happened elsewhere. I'm just the evil killer :)
If the problem arose because of that, how do I repair the damage? I
tried every yum thing I know, but removing python to re-install it would
take most of the system with it.
The database is clean, no dupes, it verifies, and I'm stumped.
I just want my radio back ;( <--- that's not a wink, it's a tear...
One thing I noticed above is that the mime-type "text/html" means the
link that RB is trying to open isn't an audio file or playlist, which,
if you're trying to pick up a MP3-format broadcast, should be
something like audio/x-mp3, audio/x-m3u, or audio/x-mpegurl. You
might want to check the URL.
A 'yum-complete-transaction' might help in this case, or
'package-cleanup'.
