Package: plymouth
Version: 0.7.2-4
Severity: normal
Hi, I'm getting the same error message, but I don't know if the cause is the
same. The problem seems to be a NULL pointer dereference in plymouthd's text
plugin. What I did was to start plymouthd by hand with /sbin/plymouthd
--mode=shutdown, then attach gdb to the plymouthd process and run plymouth
--show-splash; then, it segfaulted. There is a backtrace in the attachment,
though it's probably useless due to missing debugging information.
