Bug#439973: Bug#471019: libgl1-mesa-glx: segfaults in glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS) on amd64 when there is no GL context

2008-03-18 Thread Brice Goglin
According to upstream, this program isn't doing something valid. So I am closing this bug and CCing the one against boson. Brice bgoglin before I report a mesa bug, could anybody tell whether it is valid to call glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS) without any GL context ? nh_ I'd be extremely surprised
