Package: libgsl0-dev Version: 1.11+dfsg-1 Severity: normal Hi,
If you call any of the random-number functions in GSL and forget to initialise the random number generator (or initialise it wrongly), GSL SEGVs. This is poor - it should produce an error message. I deal with queries from people this has confused surprisingly frequently.
