Package: ruby1.9.1 Version: 1.9.2.0-1 Severity: important Tags: upstream *** Please type your report below this line ***
ruby1.9.2 segfaults running sisu (with a number of sisu options), that do not occur with ruby1.8.7, ruby1.9.0 or ruby1.9.1 (which I had to install separately to verify). This is not just the case with the current version of sisu but with previous versions as well. (it is possible that sisu needs some re-coding to be ruby1.9.2 compliant, but more graceful bug handling from ruby is expected) for example, using the markup-sample free_as_in_freedom.richard_stallman_crusade_for_free_software.sam_williams.sst provided in the package data/doc/sisu/v2/markup-samples/samples installed to /usr/share/doc/sisu/v2/markup-samples/samples/ * these work in ruby1.8.7, ruby1.9.0 and ruby1.9.1 but segfault in ruby1.9.2 [BUG] Segmentation fault first change directory to the directory in which the sample is located, then using the version of sisu in testing or sid, type sisu --html \ free_as_in_freedom.richard_stallman_crusade_for_free_software.sam_williams.sst any combination using the --verbose option fails sisu --txt --verbose \ free_as_in_freedom.richard_stallman_crusade_for_free_software.sam_williams.sst likewise sisu -N \ free_as_in_freedom.richard_stallman_crusade_for_free_software.sam_williams.sst There are likely others. # the following sisu options work (in all four: ruby1.8.7, ruby1.9.1 and # ruby1.9.2) (without the --verbose option): # # sisu -wepotbxXy \ # free_as_in_freedom.richard_stallman_crusade_for_free_software.sam_williams.sst # # sisu --txt --epub --pdf --odt --concordance --xhtml --xml-sax --xml-dom \ # --manifest \ # free_as_in_freedom.richard_stallman_crusade_for_free_software.sam_williams.sst however things may be getting worse rather than better upstream with ruby as a test on (a separate debian box with the manual installation of) ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [i686 linux], failed segfaulted on the first test passed to it sisu --txt \ free_as_in_freedom.richard_stallman_crusade_for_free_software.sam_williams.sst in earlier versions of sisu the equivalent of sisu -a \ free_as_in_freedom.richard_stallman_crusade_for_free_software.sam_williams.sst which does not happen with the version of ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [i486-linux] on unstable. I have a Sid box, it is likely to be the same in testing, please confirm otherwise.
