Package: approx Version: 2.8.0 Severity: important
When I edit the /etc/approx/approx.conf file and define an interface to listen to, approx fails with a segfault on startup. In my case I set the interface key to eth0. This is reported in /var/log/messages: Jan 29 07:48:22 hades kernel: approx[3814]: segfault at 000000000f533440 rip 00000000004cabf0 rsp 00007fff9b5abdb8 error 4 If I run approx -f from the command line, here is the output: hades:~# approx -f Version: approx 2.8.0 Config file: /etc/approx/approx.conf Interface: eth0 Port: 8124 Cache: /var/cache/approx Interval: 12 hours Max wait: 10 Debug: false Segmentation fault When I run an strace, it seems to fail right after it reads the configuration file at the "# The following are the defaults, so there is no need" line. This only happens when I uncomment the interface key in the config. Or if I set it to all, approx -f returns: hades:~# approx -f Version: approx 2.8.0 Config file: /etc/approx/approx.conf Interface: all Port: 8124 Cache: /var/cache/approx Interval: 12 hours Max wait: 10 Debug: false Not_found Once the interface key is commented out, it runs perfectly fine. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-amd64 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages approx depends on: ii adduser 3.102 Add and remove users and groups ii bzip2 1.0.3-6 high-quality block-sorting file co ii curl 7.15.5-1 Get a file from an HTTP, HTTPS, FT ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpcre3 6.7-1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii lsb-base 3.1-23 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip approx recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
