I'm experiencing the same issue, but with a completely different package (i.e not with freeradius, but with Java::Inline). The LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libperl.so.5.10 trick appears to fix it for me.
For my bug, see, for example http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.inline/2009/02/msg3785.html http://www.mail-archive.com/inl...@perl.org/msg03662.html or, in general, google "undefined symbol: Perl_sv_cmp" This suggests that the bug is not in freeradius, but is perhaps in the Data::Dumper module. So, for example: ldd /usr/lib/perl/5.10/auto/Data/Dumper/Dumper.so linux-gate.so.1 => (0xf7fa9000) libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0xf7e1b000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf7faa000) objdump -T /usr/lib/perl/5.10/auto/Data/Dumper/Dumper.so |grep Perl_sv_cmp 00000000 D *UND* 00000000 Perl_sv_cmp 00000000 D *UND* 00000000 Perl_sv_cmp_locale If this so needs this symbol, then why isn't it linked to libperl? I don't get it, but I think the bug is in XSLoader or Data::Dumper, and not in freeradius ... certainly any fix to freeradius for this will not fix the identical problem in Java::Inline Can this bug be re-assigned to a different package to get a look-see? --linas Linas Vepstas linasveps...@gmail.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
