Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 15.10
Release: 15.10
nano:
Installed: 2.4.2-1
Candidate: 2.4.2-1
Version table:
*** 2.4.2-1 0

After upgrading Ubuntu 15.04 to 15.10, when I run nano as root on a file it
just segfaults. I'm not having this problem on other 15.04->15.10 upgrades
strace is https://p.defau.lt/?q7xGwt3HoqB74xTawUUHDA
catchsegv is https://p.defau.lt/?0SPQY_bDj6F6j1ZKeToQoA
Under gdb with nano-dbgsym installed, it gives
#0 main (argc=2, argv=0x7fffffffe688) at ../../src/nano.c:2768
If I run it as sudo nano filename.txt, it gives an error as below rather than
segfaulting
[ Couldn't determine hostname for lock file: File name too long ]
Both my user and root have the same locale settings. I've tried
regenerating the locales
