Package: libgpod0 Version: 0.3.2-1 Severity: important When I connect my iPod (original series) and run a program linked with libgpod0 I get a segmentation fault.
Example: $ gtkpod Segmentation fault $ (If I run Rhythmbox, it dies as well). I think it is due to the fact that the SysInfo-file on my iPod does not have a "ModelNumStr"-line: ,----[ SysInfo ] | pszBoardHwName: iPod P68 Prod | pszSerialNumber: U22080PLLG6 | pu8FirewireGuid: 0x0002DBB0 | buildID: 0x01218000 (1.2.1) | boardHwRev: 0x00000000 (0.0 0) | boardHwSwInterfaceRev: 0x00010000 (0.0.1 0) | bootLoaderImageRev: 0x00010000 (0.0.1 0) | diskModeImageRev: 0x00000000 (0.0 0) | diagImageRev: 0x00000000 (0.0 0) | osImageRev: 0x00000000 (0.0 0) | | | `---- The call to sysinfo_arr_get_dup() in line 1029 of src/ipod-device.c results in the segmentation fault - because the function accesses a non-initialized string in field_values[]. I've tried this, perhaps crude, patch to remedy the situation: *** libgpod-0.3.2/src/ipod-device.c Fri Mar 3 12:55:15 2006 --- libgpod-0.3.2-fixed/src/ipod-device.c Sun Jun 18 23:11:37 2006 *************** *** 1002,1008 **** g_free(path); return FALSE; } ! while(fgets(buf, sizeof(buf), fd)) { buf[strlen(buf) - 1] = '\0'; --- 1002,1013 ---- g_free(path); return FALSE; } ! ! /* Initialize field_values: */ ! for (i=0; sysinfo_field_names[i] != NULL; i++) { ! field_values[i]=g_strdup(""); ! } ! while(fgets(buf, sizeof(buf), fd)) { buf[strlen(buf) - 1] = '\0'; I don't know if it is the correct way to fix the problem, but it does help on my system - I can start gtkpod now. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-asjo-powerpc Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages libgpod0 depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-0 2.10.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.18-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface Versions of packages libgpod0 recommends: pn libgpod-common <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
