I am using the AMD64 version of Ubuntu 8.10, and I have run into exactly the same problem.
The patch fixes it for me, although I have no idea whether there are any side effects. Another strange issue that I observed is that I cannot compile the version for 8.10 (oprofile_0.9.3-1.1ubuntu2.dsc) on 8.10. I get bfd_support.cpp:86: error: 'strlen' was not declared in this scope which according to google is an issue with gcc 4.3. The source package from 9.04 to be (oprofile_0.9.3-2ubuntu1.dsc) compiles fine. -- opreport crashes with "error: basic_string::erase" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
