Package: expect-dev
Version: 5.44.1.14-2
Severity: normal
Calling exp_popen from C causes a segfault. Here is a test program.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <tcl8.5/expect.h>
int main()
{
FILE *pipe;
char *some_command = "uname";
char datum;
pipe = exp_popen(some_command);
while ((datum = getc (pipe)) != EOF)
printf("%c",datum);
}
Here are the last few lines of the strace output.
open("/dev/tty", O_RDWR) = 3
ioctl(3, SNDCTL_TMR_TIMEBASE or TCGETS, {B38400 opost isig icanon echo ...}) = 0
ioctl(3, TIOCGWINSZ, {ws_row=42, ws_col=142, ws_xpixel=852, ws_ypixel=546}) = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
Segmentation fault
The segfault occurs before attempting to read from the stream. This is
100% repeatable and started happening since expect-dev was upgraded on
10/27/09. This program works correctly on a system with the previous
versions (substituting #include <tcl8.4/expect.h> above).

Description:
expect - A program that can automate interactive applications
expect-dev - A program that can automate interactive applications (development
expectk - A program that can automate interactive applications (Tk hooks)
Closes: 552685
Changes:
expect (5.44.1.14-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Removed build dependencies which are also dependencies of tk8.5-dev
(since 8.5.7-2).
* Use locally defined function Tcl_ErrnoMsg in exp_clib.c because this
part of the library is supposed to be used without loading into a Tcl
interpreter, which isn't possible if expect is build with Tcl stubs
(closes: #552685).
* Removed unneeded patches from debian/patches, cleaned up other ones.
