Package: vlc Version: 0.8.6.c-4 Severity: normal Hi, I noticed a segfault in vlc.
$ export VLC_VERBOSE=2 $ vlc VLC media player 0.8.6c Janus zsh: segmentation fault vlc It seems that function VLC_Create checks VLC_VERBOSE, and then, calls msg_Dbg. As libvlc.i_verbose has been set to 2, a message will be printed. In FromLocale function (src/misc/unicode.c), there is a call to vlc_iconv( from_locale.hd, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL ); But at that moment, LocaleInit has not been called yet, and from_locale.hd is NULL. Therefore, vlc segfaults. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22custom Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages vlc depends on: ii libaa1 1.4p5-33 ascii art library ii libatk1.0-0 1.20.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.7-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcaca0 0.99.beta13b-4 colour ASCII art library ii libcairo2 1.4.12-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcdio7 0.78.2+dfsg1-1 library to read and control CD-ROM ii libcucul0 0.99.beta13b-4 low-level Unicode character drawin ii libdbus-1-3 1.1.2-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.74-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfreetype6 2.3.5-1+b1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libfribidi0 0.10.7-4 Free Implementation of the Unicode ii libgcc1 1:4.2.2-4 GCC support library ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1 7.0.2-3 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libglu1-mesa [libglu1] 7.0.2-3 The OpenGL utility library (GLU) ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.3-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libiso9660-5 0.78.2+dfsg1-1 library to work with ISO9660 files ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libnotify1 [libnotify1- 0.4.4-3 sends desktop notifications to a n ii libpango1.0-0 1.18.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.15~beta5-3 PNG library - runtime ii libsdl-image1.2 1.2.6-1 image loading library for Simple D ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.12-3 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-1+b1 X11 Session Management library ii libstdc++6 4.2.2-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libtar 1.2.11-4 C library for manipulating tar arc ii libtiff4 3.8.2-7 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libvcdinfo0 0.7.23-4 library to extract information fro ii libvlc0 0.8.6.c-4 multimedia player and streamer lib ii libwxbase2.6-0 2.6.3.2.2-1 wxBase library (runtime) - non-GUI ii libwxgtk2.6-0 2.6.3.2.2-1 wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI t ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxosd2 2.2.14-1.4 X On-Screen Display library - runt ii libxv1 1:1.0.3-1 X11 Video extension library ii ttf-dejavu-core 2.22-1 Vera font family derivate with add ii vlc-nox 0.8.6.c-4 multimedia player and streamer (wi ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-8 compression library - runtime vlc recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
