Hello, problem seems to be to get the size of a non-existent string.
following hotfix solves the symptom, as far as I can test. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- slrn-1.0.0~pre18/src/misc.c 2009-12-02 16:44:32.000000000 +0100 +++ slrn-1.0.0~pre18-X/src/misc.c 2011-07-24 20:54:50.451442016 +0200 @@ -1568,9 +1568,9 @@ slrn_push_suspension (0); - prompt_len = strlen (prompt); + prompt_len = prompt ? strlen (prompt) : 0; ubuf = slrn_safe_malloc (prompt_len + len + 1); - strcpy (ubuf, prompt); + if(prompt) strcpy (ubuf, prompt); strncpy (ubuf + prompt_len, buf, len); len += prompt_len; --------------------------------------------------------------------------- still totaly unclear why it only happens if konsole with slrn is startet from the kde-menu.
