--- Begin Message ---Package: openscad Version: 2011.12-3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Dear Maintainer, *** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? Typing openscad at the shell prompt. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Upgraded all dependencies. I also tried the version in Experimental. * What was the outcome of this action? It still segfaulted. * What outcome did you expect instead? I hoped that the program would run, indicating an incorrect dependency. It still segfaulted. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.38-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages openscad depends on: ii libboost-program-options1.49.0 1.49.0-3.1 ii libboost-thread1.49.0 1.49.0-3.1 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libcgal9 4.0.2-1 ii libgcc1 1:4.7.2-2 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 8.0.4-2 ii libglew1.7 1.7.0-3 ii libglu1-mesa [libglu1] 7.11.2-1 ii libgmp10 2:5.0.5+dfsg-2 ii libmpfr4 3.1.0-5 ii libopencsg1 1.3.2-2 ii libqt4-opengl 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libqtcore4 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libqtgui4 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libstdc++6 4.7.2-2 openscad recommends no packages.

--- Begin Message ---This appears to be due to an interaction between some mesa libraries, the nouveau xserver, and my very obsolete Nvidia hardware (which has caused me endless trouble: I'll never buy Nvidia again). I have a workaround and Openscad now runs. I'm closing the bug as I am probably the only person in the world experiencing it. Sorry to have wasted your time. -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA
