Public bug reported: Binary package hint: groff
Increasing the vertical spacing (e.g. for double-spaced text) using the -mm .S macro causes an internal error if there is too much text in a paragraph. For example, .S 12 24 should format text in 12-point font with 24 point vertical baseline separation. It works unless a paragraph is too big. Attached is a demo file. To see the problem: groff -mm -Tps (attached file) >/dev/null fatal error: input stack limit exceeded (probable infinite loop) Using groff in Ubuntu 8.10 groff --version GNU groff version 1.18.1 ** Affects: groff (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- fatal error using mm .S macro to double-space (.S 12 24) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/398650 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
