Thomas Smith <thomat...@gmail.com> added the comment: I'm also getting segfaults in PyMarshal_ReadLastObjectFromFile in Python 2.6.2 (on Ubuntu Jaunty). It's very sporadic, I've been reproducing it by running a minimal script 100,000 times, and getting a few core dumps. There are several Ubuntu bugreports in various packages that use Python:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/393022 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-python/+bug/432546 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/streamtuner/+bug/336331 I've attached a zip file with my test scripts and some gdb backtraces. I am happy to spend time on this bug, although I only have a rudimentary knowledge of C, so I'd mainly be useful for testing. The computer I'm having trouble on is a Dell PowerEdge T410, with a Xeon E5502, and it had another sporadic segfault problem in a should-be-reliable program, ImageMagick. Switching to GraphicsMagick fixed that one, somehow. If it's a hardware-specific bug, Python is the only program that's tickling it right now... ---------- nosy: +Thomas.Smith versions: +Python 2.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file16236/traces.zip _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7332> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
