Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xterm
xterm is segfaulting whenever I use more than 9999 scroll lines. I was
previously using 50000 lines of scrollback and it worked fine, but now
it's broken. I would have to guess that it broke with the latest
version (229-1ubuntu1) because it has previously worked for me.
I am running 229-1ubuntu1, I will try to run an older version and see
what happens.
Here is the command line I've used for testing, although the colors
don't seem to matter:
xterm +vb -sb -sl 5000 -bg black -fg red -fn 7x13bold --> Works
xterm +vb -sb -sl 9999 -bg black -fg red -fn 7x13bold --> Works
xterm +vb -sb -sl 10000 -bg black -fg red -fn 7x13bold --> segfault
xterm +vb -sb -sl 10001 -bg black -fg red -fn 7x13bold --> segfault
I will also try to get a core dump and update the bug.
