Package: schism
Version: 1:0.5rc1-1
Severity: normal
How to reproduce: start schism, press enter to continue, press Shift-F5.
The crash has something to do with the way the Debian version is built and
uses Alsa for sound. If you start schism with the "-a nosound" option, you
can get to the preferences screen without any trouble.
I believe the problem is in the function preferences_set_page in
schism/page_preferences.c where lim in the division can be zero when the
mixer_get_max_volume function does not succeed.
I tried building a local debug version of the Debian source to investigate
further but I cannot reproduce the bug. Apparently rebuilding with my local
(newer?) versions of gcc and libraries is enough to make things work. Maybe
a rebuild is all it takes to fix the Debian version too?
On another note could you read the part on USE_DLTRICK_ALSA in
sys/alsa/midi-alsa.c and find out whether Debian needs this dl-trickery? I
believe the Debian version of libSDL is linked to libasound. Unfortunately
the --enable-alsadltrick option of the configure script seems to be removed
or is broken so building always uses the -DUSE_DLTRICK_ALSA option without a
way of turning it off.
