Package: libc6 Version: 2.5-9 dlvsym can fail but does not seem to set dlerror(), contrary to the manpage, which explains that error conditions should check dlvsym=NULL and dlerror!=NULL, because 0 is a valid address. The same can be said about dlsym also.
The following code outputs: (nil) which is not expected. /*BINFMTC: -ldl dlvsym test code */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <dlfcn.h> #include <stdio.h> int main() { dlerror(); if (!dlvsym(RTLD_NEXT, "chown", "NONEXIST")) { printf("%p\n", dlerror()); } return 0; } regards, junichi -- [EMAIL PROTECTED],netfort.gr.jp} Debian Project -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
