Hello, The upgrade of libc6 to version 2.23 seems to have triggered a bug in mbrola, which makes it just always crash at exit, thus making it unusable (bug #856331). mbrola is non-free, we don't even have the source code (University of Mons sent me a source code, but an older version, which does not have the crash) so we just can't investigate. However, since it is at exit, an ugly workaround is possible: just make the exit() function call the exit() system call, without trying to clean stuff. It happens that mbrola properly closes its output before calling exit(), so that does not hurt the purpose of mbrola. I have attached the debdiff that adds this workaround. unblock mbrola/3.01h+2-2 Samuel -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'buildd-experimental'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.10.0 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- Samuel X-Favorit-Cartoon: Calvin and Hobbes -+- Mail header of Wim van Dorst -+-
