Aha! As I said, you're having a path problem. You installed to /usr/local, but when you ran gdb it used /opt/fvwm/fvwm-2.5.2/fvwm/fvwm. I repeat: are you *sure* that /usr/local/bin/fvwm is run and not /opt/fvwm/fvwm-2.5.2/fvwm/fvwm? > On Fri, 2002-07-05 at 16:57, Dominik Vogt wrote: > On Fri, Jul 05, 2002 at 02:56:09PM +0100, Rob Costello wrote: > > I have not stripped the executable. > > > > If I compile without --enable-debug-msgs, fvwm compiles successfully. > > > > I have tried disabling and enabling all the extra features with no > > success. > > > > I ran the test_options script at level 0 - no errors were reported... > > > > I tried running fvwm -debug, but it core dumped before outputting any > > debug info. > > Forget about the debug stuff in the distribution.
