-- no debconf information
any program who's using libdbi0/libdbi0-dev segfaults when trying to read the
error
message from libdbi.
eg:
void open_db()
{
const char * errmsg;
dbi_conn conn;
/* initialize, set_params */
if ( dbi_conn_connect(conn) < 0 ) {
dbi_conn_error(conn, &errmsg);
printf("error connecting to db\n%s\n", errmsg);
exit(1);
}
}
ltrace output on a program using that code sample looks like this:
