[Bug 800504] [NEW] Segfault in colortail - fixed in newer versions?

2011-06-21 Thread Mike Forbes
Public bug reported:

colortail segfaults if it reads a line greater than 1024 characters in
length.

This is less than ideal :)

It's fixed in newer versions. Is there any reason this couldn't be moved
into lucid?

(from the changelog of the maintainer)
Fixed stupid off by one error in TailFile.cc that caused a segfault if a line 
in the tailed file was longer that 1024 characters.

see:
https://github.com/joakim666/colortail/commit/85af5c4821ff852b36de165a44e181dc3cc5cccd

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System - 
About Ubuntu
Description:Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
Release:10.04

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or 
by checking in Software Center
$ dpkg -l|grep colortail
ii  colortail   0.3.2-2

3) What you expected to happen
No segfaults :)

4) What happened instead
Segfault!

backtrace and valgrind reports available if required.

(I used cat to pipe a file into logger, then tail -f syslog == boom
(segfault))
