Hi, I prepared a SRU to fix this bug and #484756 in karmic. The SRU consists in backporting all the Debian changes, including Bryan's patch, to the karmic package (there was no new upstream version in the meantime). So, as a bonus, it also fixes several bugs that were reported in Debian, but not in Ubuntu.
The debdiff between the current version in karmic and my SRU is attached. Note that the debdiff between the current version in Debian and the SRU is much smaller, obviously. I've uploaded the proposed SRU to karmic-proposed. ** Attachment added: "ruby1.8_1.8.7.174-1ubuntu0.1.debdiff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36229888/ruby1.8_1.8.7.174-1ubuntu0.1.debdiff -- ruby garbage collector segfaults under certain conditions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488115 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
