[Bug 1562658] [NEW] screen caught signal 11 core dumped
Public bug reported: This is a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/screen/+bug/1333630 However, 1333630 is incorrectly marked as fix released, and after a year of occationally attempting to get someone to notice that 1333630 is not fixed, I'm giving up and opening a new bug in hope of someone actually noticing. Basically, the version of screen in the 14.04 "long term support" release can occasionally segfault, taking all contained shell sessions down with it. This is extremely annoying if you use screen extensively, and having to compile screen from source on every ubuntu install I use is ridiculous. The underlying issue was a bug in GNU screen: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?35757 This was fixed fully one year ago. However, the version of screen that's distributed as part of ubuntu is apparently **10** years old (Screen version 4.01.00devel (GNU) 2-May-06). Since 14.04 is ostensibly still supported, can someone please actually support it, and upgrade the version of screen to something from the last year? There is screen 4.2.1 in trusty/backports, but 1) this bug was not fixed until 4.3.0, and 2) this is a core shell util, I shouldn't have to go hunting for a additional repository to get a functional version of the GNU tools that's usually installed by default.

[Bug 1500581] Re: open-vm-tools-dkms fails to build on kernel 4.2 (Wily Werewolf) [error: implicit declaration of function ‘nd_set_link’]
Hi Stanislaw, Thanks for information from you. One point however is not clear for me. All that on github seems to be VmWare's own open-vm-tools repo. The guys there claim (see Readme.md file, last update 7 months ago) open-vm-tools would not include Linux drivers as those were available as part of Linux kernel itself. According to same file Linux kernels since 3.10 would include all Linux drivers except for (vm)hgfs, so the impression arises VmWare open-vm-tools project does not target Linux drivers, inclusively hgfs. They leave this task the distribution vendors or mainline kernels - so far my understanding. How does it comply with your last statement here? Or you mean other github open-vm-tools project, not the VmWare's one.

So. it's not getting fixed? I use LTS releases be cause I assumed they were actually supported (that's what the S in LTS means, or so I thought). Why on earth would this not be released for all the currently supported variants. Admittedly, it's rather hard to trigger, but it's a complete dealbreaker when if it is triggered, particularly if you have long-running tasks in a screen session (which is what I use it for). It occasionally triggers on exiting htop, and basically ruins my entire day. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to screen in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1333630 Title: screen caught signal 11 core dumped To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/screen/+bug/1333630/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I should add, following this recipe here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=681572 still reproduces the issue exactly. Here is a copy of the repro: - enable the alternate screen: ^A :altscreen on - be sure to have at least two windows opened, then split with ^A S - open Vim - make the current region bigger with ^A :resize 83% (same with +number or while decreasing the other size) or remove it entirely with ^A X - close Vim and screen crashes with [screen caught signal 11.
