Subject: libc6: New version of libc6 hangs SBCL Package: libc6 Version: 2.7-9 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
*** Please type your report below this line *** After upgrading to 2.7-9 of libc6 in unstable, SBCL became extremely prone to crashing randomly (i.e. 5-10 source files compiled of the SBCL CVS code before a 100% CPU hang which was only killable with -s 9. The issue was originally raised on the SBCL devel list here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.steel-bank.devel/10902/focus=10905 I upgraded the system from libc6 2.7-8, which seems to have caused the problem. Downgrading libc6 to the package in testing (libc 2.7-6) fixes it again: I've since compiled sbcl from CVS twice to make sure. Rupert Swarbrick P.S. The System Information below was generated with reportbug and I've currently got 2.7-6 installed. libgcc1 doesn't seem to have been up/down-graded, though, so I think the below is mostly true except for the "testing" bits, since all other libraries are at the current versions in unstable. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libc6 depends on: ii libgcc1 1:4.3-20080227-1 GCC support library libc6 recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
