RE: [Ntop-dev] BUG: build on FC4

Buzzz...

Thanks for playing, but no dice.

You missed the frame command. Without backing up through the stack into our code, you are listing __kernel_vsyscall. Since gdb doesn't have the sources for it, you just get the first few lines of ntop's initialization routine.

All that said and as was pointed out in another thread

(1) We don't support other people's RPMs. Just no way to know what version it is, what patches, etc.

(2) Kenneth's comment re stripping symbols may make gdb fail to show anything in frame 5 anyway.

(3) Use the source and see if it still fails.

First I installed the debuginfo from the rpmbuild

[EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]rpm -ihv /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/ntop-debuginfo-3.1-1.2.fc4.rf.i386.rpm

So now I have
