Hi all,
When trying to start the dictd as root it dies with a
segfault:
[prompt]/etc/init.d: ./dictd start
Starting DICTDdictd (_log_check_filename): Cannot open "/var/log/dictd" for
append
startproc: signal catched /usr/sbin/dictd: Segmentation fault
failed
I've fetched the source, recompiled with debug info enabled:
gdb /usr/sbin/dictd
...
This GDB was configured as "x86_64-suse-linux"...
Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1".
(gdb) run -L /var/log/dictd
Starting program: /usr/sbin/dictd -L /var/log/dictd
.cshrc: No such file or directory.

Somebody out there who can confirm this behavior ?
I'm running openSUSE 10.3, x86_64, dictd-1.10.9-16.
Kind regards,
Stephan.
