@Mitchell Um, no its... not. It then changes again from Assertion to Core Dump after Buffer Overflow. Reason, I am quite sure now, is the newer ncurses version on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. Because, if you run gpsmon --nocurses it will work right away with your PPA. Same with my newly build version. I opened up this ticket: https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues/307
For those playing along at home, just a quick overview of what I have done to build gpsd and gpsmon from scratch, might be helpful for someone in the future: It seems like there might be some fixes in the current head/main release. Also, the gpsmon segfault crash is named and should be fixed there: https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues/300 - which I think is the one Mitchell built into the PPA. # I installed the dependencies: apt install gcc scons python3-gi python3-gi-cairo g++ apt install python3-gobject libgtk-3-dev apt install libncurses5-dev libtinfo-dev pps-tools apt install gir1.2-gtk-3.0 # Got the soure code at latest commit 02f2750adac5bb4e92f0953fcad5e828355e2703 git clone https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd.git cd gpsd/ # Fixed the ncurses, otherwise it will not build gpsmon: # ncurses: https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues/190 sed 's/ncursesw5/ncursesw6/g' -i SConscript # build it scons && scons check # you can start gpsd in buildtmp/gpsd/ , e.g. with ./gpsd -D5 -N -b -n -p -s 9600 /dev/loraGPS # you can start gpsmon in buildtmp/gpsmon/ ./gpsmon -D5 # it will buffer overflow detect and crash. # you can start it "working" with ./gpsmon -D5 --nocurses ** Bug watch added: gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues #307 https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues/307 ** Bug watch added: gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues #300 https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues/300 ** Bug watch added: gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues #190 https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/issues/190 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2076191 Title: gpsmon crashes (segfault) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gpsd/+bug/2076191/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
