At least it is reproducible, I had to set up my sid chroot in order to
allow to use the host machine's X display, and now I also get it. It
seems to segfault in the following code:
sub fatalmsg {
my($msg)[EMAIL PROTECTED];
print STDERR $msg; # also print to stderr
# create frame for main window
my $main=new MainWindow;
$main->resizable(0,0);
$main->title("TeX Documentation Browser");
$main->bind('<Control-q>'=>sub { exit });
$main->bind('<Control-k>'=>sub { exit });
my $msgframe=$main->Frame(-background=>"#ffcc99");
my $cmdframe=$main->Frame;
$msgframe->pack(-side=>'top');
$cmdframe->pack(-side=>'bottom',-fill=>'x');
# make buttons for command frame
my $Qbut=$cmdframe->Button(-text=>'Kill',%butcol,
-command=>sub { exit })->pack(-fill=>'x');
# define common default font for labels and text explicitly
my @deffont=$Qbut->configure(-font);
# ensure readability on high-res screens (suggested by R.Kotucha)
$deffont='Helvetica -16 bold' if &x_resolution > 1200;
$Qbut->configure(-font=>$deffont);
When I run texdoctk in the debugger, it proceeds up to that line,
main::x_resolution(/usr/bin/texdoctk:1631):
1631: open(XINF,"xwininfo -root|") or return 1200;
DB<2> s
main::fatalmsg(/usr/bin/texdoctk:1693):
1693: $Qbut->configure(-font=>$deffont);
DB<2> s
and then does nothing.
Regards, Frank
