Hi Alexandre, Thank you for the analysis performed on the Debian archive. It helps improving the quality of software in Debian a lot. Regarding those two crashes they happen due to the .vis files do not export main() or any other entry point and meant to be executed on their own, but they are plugins for XBMC. I will remove the execute bit on the files in the next upload to not misguide the automatic analysis and to conform to the Debian Policy [1], but not everyone sees executable shared libraries as problems [2,3]. I suggest skipping ELF files without entry points in future analysis because they crash invariably. Thank you, Balint [1] http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-sharedlibs.html#s-sharedlibs-runtime [2] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6299395/gcc-generates-shared-object-with-execute-permissions [3] http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2007-April/013514.html
