After some iterations Kirk and I determined that the problem here was with cmake and boost versions. Kirk's machine had boost 1.39 pre-installed and he had compiled boost 1.41 himself. For some reason cmake was compiling using v1.41 version and linking against v1.39. This led to the seg faults. Making sure 1.39 was used for both compilation and linking cleared up the problem. I'm not sure why this problem arose, but it could have something to do with the cmake version. I have successfully specified an alternate boost directory using cmake v2.8.0, but I guess Fedora 12 comes with v2.6. Take home lesson: if you encounter strange crashing problems with cmake-based builds, check to make sure that you're using the correct boost shared libs. Thanks to Kirk for his patience in tracking this problem down. -greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Rdkit-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rdkit-discuss
