Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
In dapper shares-admin crashes on launch. The error messages vary, but
usually a window appears with a spinning wheel and the contents greyed
out. On one occasion, while trying to launch shares-admin as non-root, a
password dialogue appeared, but after I entered the password it crashed
anyway.
This is what happened as I tried to launch shares-admin several times as
non-root, via sudo and as root:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ shares-admin
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ shares-admin
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x10381ad0 ***
Aborted
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo shares-admin
Password:
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (out): 0x102e0078 ***
Aborted
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ su
Password:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/robert# shares-admin
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x102afe18 ***
Aborted
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/robert# shares-admin
Segmentation fault
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/robert# exit
exit
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ shares-admin
Segmentation fault
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo shares-admin
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x102afe18 ***
Aborted
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
I then tried to launch a different build of the program on another machine with
a gentoo installation (compiled with gcc-4.11 or something) and I got yet
another set of errors, namely:
*** glibc detected *** shares-admin: double free or corruption
(fasttop): 0x0823e050 ***
and
*** glibc detected *** shares-admin: double free or corruption
(fasttop): 0x0823e540 ***
(this last error repeated twice).
