In output.c, line 44 g_locale_from_utf8 is used to convert the string that should be printed to the systems locale. This function returns either the converted string or NULL in case of an error. We pass the return value without prior checking whether it is NULL to fputs (in case of non-curses output). Just for the record, the backtrace: (gdb) bt #0 0xb7e07463 in strlen () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 #1 0xb7df1c28 in fputs () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 #2 0x0804dc55 in pal_output_handler (instr=0x8064ce0 "DAN-TrÃ\203¤ger") at output.c:47 #3 0xb7f738b8 in g_print () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #4 0x0804e7d8 in pal_output_wrap (string=0x8062a00 "Neue DAN-TrÃ\203¤ger im VTB: Dieter BÃ\203¶lts und Mara Meiners", chars_used=7, indent=2) at output.c:430 #5 0x0804ead0 in pal_output_event (event=0x8062148, date=0x8065550, selected=0) at output.c:527 #6 0x0804ed63 in pal_output_date (date=0x8065550, show_empty_days=0, selected_event=-1) at output.c:595 #7 0x0804abbd in view_range (starting_date=0x8065550, window=8) at main.c:58 #8 0x0804c0bd in view_details () at main.c:404 #9 0x0804d5f1 in main (argc=2, argv=0xbff837b4) at main.c:813 Regards, Carsten -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
