I tried to find the essential change of this patch ignoring all autogenerated files I considered (possibly wrongly) the follwing patch: https://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/packages/R/r-cran-treescape/trunk/debian/patches/0001-fixing-issue-with-new-release-of-ape.patch?view=markup I uploaded the package including the patch but the problematic build issue remains. While I admit that I have no idea about R internals nor what ape is doing I somehow can not understand in how far the error: ... ** preparing package for lazy loading Creating a generic function for 'toJSON' from package 'jsonlite' in package 'googleVis' Warning in rgl.init(initValue, onlyNULL) : RGL: unable to open X11 display Warning: 'rgl_init' failed, running with rgl.useNULL = TRUE Error: segfault from C stack overflow * removing '/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/r-cran-treescape/usr/lib/R/site-library/treescape' ... should be related. The full build log is available online https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=r-cran-treescape&arch=i386&ver=1.10.17-2&stamp=1481212918 the critical part is quite at the end. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
