An alternatve to rebuilding Qt with the patch applied is to binary patch the Qt libs and test:
I copied libQtCore.so and libQtGui.so (the two Qt deps of the simple Qt app which crashes) in the current dir Then sed -i 's/\x04\(\xbf.\xe8\x00.\)/\x02\1/' libQtCore.so.4 same on QtGui export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ldd ./crasherapp (just to confirm it ineed gets the libs from the current dir) This sed invocation changes itt to ittt in the places where a strexeq follows The app crashes in the same way so unlikely imho that the patch is the issue, or that indeed the patch is incorrect. With ittt objdump -d annotates that disas line with beq.n 1242c8 <_ZN12QApplication11qt_metacastEPKc+0x5c> ; unpredictable <IT:eq> because it is unclear whether the ittt of the previous teq should affect the conditional bits in the beqeq instruction -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to qt4-x11 in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705689 Title: unity-2d-launcher crashes with segfault error on armel (natty only) -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
