Public bug reported: PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu quantal (12.10)" VERSION="12.10, Quantal Quetzal"
Package: xless Priority: optional Section: universe/text Installed-Size: 128 Origin: Ubuntu Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug Architecture: i386 Version: 1.7-14.1 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), libx11-6, libxaw7, libxmu6, libxt6 Filename: pool/universe/x/xless/xless_1.7-14.1_i386.deb xless has a button to popup a search dialog window. After entering the search string and hitting <CR>, the application crashes with a segmentation violation. Using the search dialog invoked with <CTRL><S> also results in a crash, so I get the impression that the search is successful and that the crash occurs when redrawing the text display pane to show the string highlighted. This bug was not present as far as I am aware in previous versions of Ubuntu and appeared with the change in version of libXaw (as well as the related upgrade of libXt of course). After downloading the source and using debian/rules to compile with -g flag and dh_strip commented out, and installing the debug packages ii libx11-6-dbg:i386 2:1.5.0-1ubuntu0.1 i386 X11 client-side library (debug package) ii libxaw7-dbg:i386 2:1.0.10-2 i386 X11 Athena Widget library (debug package) ii libxt6-dbg:i386 1:1.1.3-1ubuntu0.12.10 i386 X11 toolkit intrinsics library (debug package) the attached backtrace report was generated indicating the cause of the crash occurs in XawTextSelectionList of libXaw, so perhaps the bug should be filed against libXaw rather than xless. As I use xless as my manual page viewer, I find this bug to be extremely inconvenient. ** Affects: xless (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: libxaw xawtextsetselection xless ** Attachment added: "gdb backtrace for xless crash in XawTextSetSelection" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1198758/+attachment/3728627/+files/gdb_xless-1.7.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1198758 Title: xless 1.7 -- segmentation fault in libXaw using search dialog popup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xless/+bug/1198758/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
