OK I think I could figure what is kind of causing the segfault at least
for me. It's the language environment I'm using.
Steps to reproduce:
~$ export LANG=nb_NO.UTF-8
~$ sudo gdb synaptic
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/sbin/synaptic
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xb7148410 in _IO_vfprintf_internal (s=Cannot access memory at address
0xffffffff
) at vfprintf.c:1620
1620 vfprintf.c: Ingen slik fil eller filkatalog.
in vfprintf.c
(gdb)
(translation of the last statement: "1620 vfprintf.c: no such file
or directory in vfprintf.c")
Switching back to LANG=C and synaptic will work.
