Folks:
I just built 0.9.9.pre2 as an RPM for Fedora Core on i386 class
machines. I did this months ago with 0.9.8 too, and it worked fine.
However, I'm getting a core dump off fgfs almost immediately at
start-up. It won't even get as far as "fgfs --help".
The latter few lines of "strace fgfs" look like this:
open("/usr/share/FlightGear/data/preferences.xml", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/usr/share/FlightGear/data/Translations/locale.xml",
O_RDONLY) = 4 close(4) = 0
open("/usr/share/FlightGear/data/gui/menubar.xml", O_RDONLY) = 4
close(4) = 0
open("/usr/share/FlightGear/data/gui/styles/default.xml",
O_RDONLY) = 4
close(4) = 0
open("/usr/share/FlightGear/data/gui/styles/anthrax.xml",
O_RDONLY) = 4
close(4) = 0
open("/usr/share/FlightGear/data/cloudlayers.xml", O_RDONLY) =
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/FlightGear/data/keyboard.xml", O_RDONLY) = 4
close(4) = 0
open("/usr/share/FlightGear/data/mice.xml", O_RDONLY) = 4
close(4) = 0
close(3) = 0
munmap(0xb0913000, 4096) = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
( I indented it by hand to make it a bit more obvious what 'close'
belongs with which 'open' )
Seems like the program closes /usr/share/FlightGear/data/preferences.xml
and immediately crashes.
I've not got any scenery loaded apart from the default couple of tiles
around KSFO. I removed my 0.9.8 .rc files and anything else I could find
that looked like hangovers from 0.9.8 just in case. No effect.
This was compiled on Fedora Core 2 with the gcc 3.3.3-7 standard
compiler. All worked fine for 0.9.8 as I said.
