 Package: libc6
 Version: 2.7-6
 Severity: important
 
 Investigating a problem with asterisk not starting, I found that 
 start-stop-daemon was segfaulting when fed a group.
 
 /etc/nsswitch.conf has not been modified.
 
 /etc/group starts with the standard

This pointer is NULL.


Quoting the manpage:
   The user argument must be non-NULL.

The bug is therefore not in the glibc, but in dpkg. Reassigning the bug
to dpkg.

That's because you are using libc6 from testing or unstable. Either use
the Etch version, or use the latest version from testing or unstable.

Please hint glibc/2.7-6

2008-01-23 Thread Aurelien Jarno
Hi, 
 
glibc/2.7-6 is ready to go into testing. It fixes bugs that are present 
in the testing version (and most notably an RC bug), and hasn't any
known regression. 
   
Could you please hint it? 

Thanks, 
Aurelien
