Public bug reported: I have an Ubuntu machine running MythTV, and a few weeks ago it became extremely unstable. Some tracking revealed that there were lots of segmentation faults in several programs related to myth: the frontend, the backend, and mythfilldatabase. The problem appears to be that described here:
http://mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-dev/2007-June/055983.html Out of the box, Ubuntu gives me the problematic configuration described above. Running ldd on /usr/lib/qt3/plugins/sqldrivers/libqsqlmysql.so, I see: libmysqlclient.so.15 => /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.15 Today, I replaced libmysqlclient.so.15 and libmysqlclient.so.15.0.0 by symbolic links to libmysqlclient_r.so.15 and libmysqlclient_r.so.15.0.0, and now my system has become much more stable. One way or another, mythtv needs to use the reentrant version or it will be unstable. Should perhaps the QT packages simply compile against the reentrant version to begin with? That would seem like the simplest solution to me. Barring that, perhaps there should be an alternate QT install that uses the reentrant packages. ** Affects: qt-x11-free (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- qt uses non-reentrant libmysqlclient, causing mythtv instability https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179612 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
