Summary: segfault when reading in DSA private key on Ubuntu 64 bit
Initial Comment:
Hello, I'm using Net::SSH2 in perl which links against libssh2. I've tried old
versions 0.18, the release 1.0 and a cvs snapshot from today. I get the same
results on all 3.
I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.1 64 bit
Here's an ldd against libssh2.so
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fff829fe000)
libssl.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 (0x00007f8e7a417000)
libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 (0x00007f8e7a097000)
libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x00007f8e79e7f000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f8e79b1d000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f8e79919000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f8e7a88b000)

I don't know how to use GDB to give you better information. Is there anything
I should check or command I could run to get you better info?

Thanks for your help on improving libssh2!
We need more details on this bug entry to be able to sort it out properly,
and until more info is provided this entry will be set to 'pending' status
and will get closed automatically at a later date unless feedback has been
given.

Message:
Another question. What build of OpenSSL 0.9.8 are you using? Have had
random segv's with earlier builds of both 0.9.8 and 0.9.7.

Message:
'bt' in gdb gives much better data, especially if you have a libssh2 built
with debug symbols.
Without that, this is virtually impossible to figure out...
Does it always happen and seemingly on the same spot?
