I had a similar problem a few weeks ago, and I ended up fixing it by
simply deleting all of the index files created by glimplseindex, and
re-running it.  Everything worked fine after that, so there must have
been something corrupt in the files.

There's an easy fix, which I reported to the bugs database; however I
have had no response from the maintainer.  Check the bugs database
because I can't remember the details.

segmentation fault with glimpseindex

1998-05-21 Thread Thomas Vaughan

After investigating the segmentation fault that I have observed in
the e-mail report from cron.weekly, I ran glimpseindex by hand and
observed the following output.

: $ glimpseindex -z -H /var/cache/man2html /usr/man/man* /usr/X11R6/man/man* 
/usr/local/man/man*
:

Is there an easy way for me to fix this, or is it a bug that needs to
be addressed?
