--- Begin Message ---Hi Brian! Here's another bug report I received against xfig: ----- Forwarded message from Pascal Brisset <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- From: Pascal Brisset <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Bug#342512: xfig: Crash while editing text element Date: Thu, 08 Dec 2005 09:27:13 +0100 Package: xfig Version: 1:3.2.5-alpha5-3 Severity: normal The following operations cause a crash: - Create a text and edit it. Add enough chars to enable the horizontal scrollbar. - Move the mouse pointer on this scrollbar and press DEL key. You get xfig3.2.5-alpha5: SIGSEGV signal trapped xfig: attempting to save figure xfig: 1 object(s) saved in "/home/sepia/brisset/tmp/FIG/SAVE.fig" gdb gives a bit more: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x400bb53a in XawTextSourceScan () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.6 I'm using the stable sarge distribution (however, same results with the etch version), running the 2.4.27-2-686 kernel on a i686 platform. --Pascal ----- End forwarded message ----- I can reproduce this problem here (xfig is linked against Xaw3d 1.5+E). When I run xfig in a debugger I get the following backtrace: #0 0x00002aaaab16fc1c in XawTextSourceScan () from /usr/lib/libXaw3d.so.6 #1 0x00002aaaab17160a in _XawTextZapSelection () from /usr/lib/libXaw3d.so.6 #2 0x00002aaaab40bae6 in _XtMatchAtom () from /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 #3 0x00002aaaab40c077 in _XtMatchAtom () from /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 #4 0x00002aaaab40c763 in _XtTranslateEvent () from /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 #5 0x00002aaaab3e5e6b in XtDispatchEventToWidget () from /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 #6 0x00002aaaab3e6650 in _XtOnGrabList () from /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 #7 0x00002aaaab3e67be in XtDispatchEvent () from /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 #8 0x0000000000448899 in main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffff84e0b8) at main.c:1519 I'm not sure, whether this is a bug in xfig or Xaw3d, but it's triggered by xfig, so you may have a solution or work around for it :-) Ciao Roland
