------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Jun 17 19:14:40 +0000 2008 ------- OO2.4.1, after being installed via an update from 2.4, aborts immediately on Fedora Core 7 (and most likely later versions) because of an SELinux 'execheap' violation. I will attach the complete error report from SELinux. But in essence it says the program contains incorrect code which is a security risk. The SELinux web site discusses how to write code which avoids this problem (it says to use mmap to allocate anonymous storage for generated code, not malloc + mprotect) Please see the 'execheap' section of http://people.redhat.com/drepper/selinux-mem.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
