Package: xtail
Version: 2.1-5
Severity: important
Hi,
I seem to have hit a wall here:
% xtail /opt/build-web/build-web/storage/logs/josip/
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) xtail
/opt/build-web/build-web/storage/logs/josip/
Kernel logs at the time things like:
[99470.526562] traps: xtail[15506] general protection ip:4021ed sp:7fff9162b1f0
error:0 in xtail[400000+4000]
A DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=debug build says:
% echo bt | gdb /tmp/xtail-2.1/xtail core
Reading symbols from /tmp/xtail-2.1/xtail...done.

It actually doesn't crash with an expanded wildcard on the same directory,
% xtail /opt/build-web/build-web/storage/logs/josip/*
In there, Ctrl+C says:
currently watching: 408 files 0 dirs 0 unknown entries
But I wanted it specifically for the advertized functionality of not having
to have a fixed list of files to monitor, so this bug makes the program
useless to me.
The machine it's running on is an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS VM (512 MB RAM) ane
the directory is on an ext4 filesystem.
Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.
Please fix this. TIA.
