$ nicotine
Nicotine supports "psyco", an inline optimizer for python
code, you can get it at http://sourceforge.net/projects/psyco/
You do not have Python Vorbis bindings installed.
Others will not be able to see the lengths and the bitrates
of Ogg Vorbis files that you share. You can get the from
http://www.andrewchatham.com/pyogg/.
If you're using Debian, install the python-pyvorbis package.

Nicotine supports a country code blocker but that
requires a (GPL'ed) library called GeoIP. You can find it here:
C library:       http://www.maxmind.com/app/c
Python bindings: http://www.maxmind.com/app/python
(the python bindings require the C library)

Shared files database seems to be corrupted, rescan your shares
