That was completely different matter, unless you got advice from someone 
else with a gourd in his nom de plume.  I've never heard of any problems 
with the packman build of rtmpdump.  It works fine in 12.2, and the 12.1 
build comes from the same source version (2.4.git20121102).  But then 
I've only used the 32-bit builds.

Don't go DIY just yet.  Check your rtmpdump and librtmp0 packages and 
make that they are both from packman and both have the same version.  If 
the versions don't match, a segfault would likely result.  Even if they 
check out, do as I suggested and uninstall/reinstall those packages.
