Bug#307314: mutt: header cache seg fault when accessing same folder from two different locales
tags 307314 + moreinfo thanks Re: David Everly 2005-05-02 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Package: mutt Version: 1.5.9-1 Severity: normal I have a setup where all my mail goes to a local instance of courier-imap. Then I use mutt to access this imap server. I have a habit of leaving mutt running on my INBOX on my local machine. Then at times during the day I ssh to this machine from whichever unix machine I happen to be near and start a second instance of mutt. It seems that because this other machine uses a different locale, this practice corrupts the header cache and causes a segmentation fault some time later. Here are the exact steps to reproduce this (for convenience, all on one machine): - set the locale to LANG=en_US.UTF-8 and open mutt to the INBOX on an imap server - in another window or terminal, unset any locale (LANG) so that it defaults to C and open a second instance of mutt to the INBOX on the same imap server - delete a message on the second instance of mutt - exit the second instance of mutt - wait until a new message is received on the first instance (LANG=en_US.UTF-8) of mutt - exit the first instance (LANG=en_US.UTF-8) of mutt - open again the first instance (LANG=en_US.UTF-8) of mutt to the INBOX on the imap server (this is the point where it will seg fault unless you delete the header cache) Hi David, sorry for the late followup - can you still reproduce this crash with recent mutt packages? I just tried here and couldn't. Christoph -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.df7cb.de/ signature.asc Description: Digital signature

This appears to be fixed for me also (mutt 1.5.13-1.1).

- do you set $charset in your ~/.muttrc?
No, since I have previously followed /usr/share/doc/mutt/README.Debian.
- can you reproduce without using your ~/.muttrc? (I.e., start mutt
with mutt -F /dev/null).
I haven't tried, but I'm fairly certain I will be unable to reproduce
this without my ~/.muttrc, since header_cache is by default not enabled.
I'm attaching my ~/.muttrc for informational purposes. I've done no
other mutt customization other than that.

FYI, I am using a file as cache (instead of a directory). Also, I find that a work around for me is to start mutt from a script which first exports LANG=en_US.UTF-8 before starting mutt. I may be unavailable for most of tomorrow, so don't be worried, I can respond when I return late in the evening. -- Encrypted Mail Preferred: Key ID: 8527B9AF Key Fingerprint: E1B6 40B6 B73F 695E 0D3B 644E 6427 DD74 8527 B9AF Information: http://www.gnupg.org/ ASCII ribbon campaign: () against HTML email /\ against Microsoft attachments Information: http://www.expita.com/nomime.html signature.asc Description: Digital signature
