I updated to latest hipster yesterday afternoon too.

I hadn't tried rhythmbox since the hipster 2016.10 release, because after
updating to that I was missing some of the encumbered plugins and I don't
think updated versions ever got added to hipster-encumbered (at least
last I checked).

I just tried rhythmbox now, and rhythmbox core dumps for me too.

If I try debug it with 'dbx', then dbx core dumps.  :-)  At least it
leaves its core in /tmp, so it doesn't overwrite the core from rhythmbox.

I then installed gdb and tried that, and gdb also core dumps:

12:58 PM dogbert ~$ gdb /usr/bin/rhythmbox core 
Segmentation Fault (core dumped)
12:59 PM dogbert ~$ file core
core:           ELF 64-bit LSB core file AMD64 Version 1, from 'gdb'

So, what information would be useful to help track down any of these
issues?

As an aside, rhythmbox links to a truly impressive number of libraries:
