Package: plymouth
Version: 0.9.0-6
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I am trying to use plymouth on an embedded system with a framebuffer video
driver.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I followed the many tutorials availible for this kind of setup, but none
worked.
* What was the outcome of this action?
It turns out plymouthd is crashing with a SEGV
* What outcome did you expect instead?
plymouthd should not crash.
This has a preliminay fix upstream
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80553>
I have ported the patch there to quilt if you want it. The patch prevents the
crash, however there are still many other thing broken in framebuffer mode.
Keyboard does not work in framebuffer mode. Also plymouth-quit.service fails
(times out). A better patch would fix these issues as well.
