Package: gnucash Version: 1:2.4.10-2~bpo60+1 Severity: important After I upgraded from Lenny to Squeeze on 2012-11-30 the Squeeze main repository kept the version of gnucash which I had previously installed from lenny-backports, 2.2.9-10. That gnucash version calls for libglib2.0-0 version 2.24.0 or higher, which I assume was the version originally in the Squeeze main repository, and probably in lenny-backports as well. In any event I was able to use that version of gnucash until 2013-01-01.
Later that same day I installed a number of new packages, and also some security fixes. The following day I was unable to open gnucash. Instead I received the following error message when I tried to open it in a terminal emulator: Gnu.bin – Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disabled at configure time. Segmentation fault. I then checked the packages installed or upgraded on 2013-01-01; there was only one which gnucash uses -- libglib2.0-0 version 2.24.2-1 This version is now the one in the Squeeze main repository. I consequently can only assume that gnucash will not load with this version of that package, although the gnucash dependency list says the it will work with versions 2.24.0 and higher. I also tried to use the version of gnucash from squeeze-backports, 2.4.10-2, but it does not work either and returns the same segmentation fault message. I recall that in 2010, when I was upgrading from Etch to Lenny and at the same time upgrading gnucash 2.2.9 from an earlier version. On that occasion I had to recompile gnucash. I have in addition since 2013-01-01 found problems with other packages which use libglib2.0-0. Package hardinfo now returns a segmentation fault. Iceweasel now 17.0 crashes when I attempt to download a file from it. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnucash depends on: ii gnucash 1:2.4.10-2~bpo60+1 common files for the financial-acc ii guile-1 1.6.8-10 The GNU extension language and Sch ii guile-1 1.6.8-10 Main Guile libraries ii guile-1 1.6.8-10 Guile SLIB support ii libaqba 5.0.22-1~bpo60+1 library for online banking applica ii libart- 4:14.0.0-0debian7+r3+pr6~squeeze Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbono 2.24.3-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbono 2.24.3-1 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.11.3-4 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcair 1.10.2-7~bpo60+1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcryp 0.57-2 Support for https protocol in LWP ii libdate 6.11-1 module for manipulating dates ii libdbi0 0.8.2-3 Database Independent Abstraction L ii libfina 1.17-1 Perl module for retrieving stock q ii libfont 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfree 2.4.2-2.1+squeeze4 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcon 2.28.1-6 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglad 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnom 2.30.1-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnom 2.30.0-1 The GNOME library - runtime files ii libgnom 2.30.1-1 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnom 2.24.3-1 The GNOME libraries (User Interfac ii libgnom 1:2.24.3-1 GNOME Virtual File System (runtime ii libgoff 0.8.8-1 Document centric objects library - ii libgtk2 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libguil 1.6.8-10 Guile's patched version of libtool ii libgwen 4.3.1-1~bpo60+1 Gwenhywfar GUI implementation for ii libgwen 4.3.1-1~bpo60+1 OS abstraction layer ii libhtml 2.10-3 module for extracting the content ii libhtml 3.23-2 Perl module to represent and creat ii libice6 2:1.0.6-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libktob 1.28-1 library for verification of accoun ii libofx4 1:0.9.0-3 library to support Open Financial ii liborbi 1:2.14.18-0.1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpang 1.28.3-1+squeeze2 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt 1.16-1 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libqthr 1.6.8-10 QuickThreads library for Guile ii libsm6 2:1.1.1-1 X11 Session Management library ii libsoup 2.30.2-1+squeeze1 an HTTP library implementation in ii libwebk 1.2.7-0+squeeze2 Web content engine library for Gtk ii libwww- 5.836-1 Perl HTTP/WWW client/server librar ii libx11- 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-2+squeeze6 GNOME XML library ii perl 5.10.1-17squeeze4 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii slib 3b1-3.1 Portable Scheme library ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnucash recommends: ii gnucash-docs 2.2.0-3 Documentation for gnucash, a perso ii yelp 2.30.1+webkit-1 Help browser for GNOME Versions of packages gnucash suggests: ii libdbd-mysql 0.8.2-1-4.1+b1 MySQL database server driver for l ii libdbd-pgsql 0.8.2-1-4.1+b1 PostgreSQL database server driver ii libdbd-sqlite3 0.8.2-1-4.1+b1 SQLite3 database driver for libdbi -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
