Package: bitchx Version: 1:1.1-4 Severity: important On sparc platform, bitchx segfault at startup on some irc server (yes, it is very specific).
I recompiled upstream, applied the two patches: combined-debian-changes.diff static-declarations.patch (otherwise, it does not compile with gcc-4) Here is the backtrace of the segfault: #0 0x000aeff0 in lame_resolv (hostname=0xffffffff <Address 0xffffffff out of bounds>, buffer=0x1571b4) at ../../source/network.c:643 #1 0x000e6130 in userhost_returned (from=0xffb3306c "irc.inp-net.rezosup.org", ArgList=0xffb32fbc) at ../../source/who.c:988 #2 0x000bb45c in numbered_command (from=0xffb3306c "irc.inp-net.rezosup.org", comm=302, ArgList=0xffb32fb8) at ../../source/numbers.c:665 #3 0x000c28a0 in parse_server (orig_line=0xffb3306b ":irc.inp-net.rezosup.org") at ../../source/parse.c:1912 #4 0x000cfa68 in do_server (rd=0xffb33978, wr=0xffb338f8) at ../../source/server.c:584 #5 0x0008eaa0 in BX_io (what=<value optimized out>) at ../../source/irc.c:1337 #6 0x0008fa10 in main (argc=1381352, argv=<value optimized out>, envp=<value optimized out>) at ../../source/irc.c:1705 You can reproduce it on irc.bde.inp-toulouse.fr. This server is part of the network, and on other servers of the network, it does not segfault (it is not linked with server version or configuration so). -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: sparc (sparc64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-22-sparc64 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages bitchx depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.5-2 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii xfonts-utils 1:1.0.0-4 X Window System font utility progr bitchx recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
