I've got net-misc/hylafax-4.2.0-r1. When I send fax, it returns email like: facsimile job 2706 to 0556771088 failed In /var/log/messages I found: Nov 30 10:50:29 gw FaxSend[27919]: Assertion failed "Invalid Str[] index", file "../util/Str.h" line 109. Nov 30 10:50:29 gw FaxQueuer[27880]: JOB 2706: Send program terminated abnormally with exit status 0x6 Nov 30 10:50:29 gw FaxQueuer[27880]: NOTIFY: bin/notify "doneq/q2706" "failed" "0:56" Nov 30 10:50:29 gw FaxQueuer[27880]: NOTIFY exit status: 0 (27944) But when I compile hylafax: ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/hylafax/hylafax-4.2.0-r1.ebuild unpack compile install qemerge without hylafax-4.2.0-dso.patch, everything works find. Just like in 4.1.x versions. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: nerdboy@gentoo.org 2004-11-30 13:37:19 0000 I'm in a bind right now, so I can't really experiment with this yet, however, there's one thing you could try for me if you have the chance: Build Hylafax with the DSO patch again, only change the -fpic to -fPIC instead. Let me know how it goes if get to try it, otherwise I should be able to come up for air in a day or two. Thanks... ojo@force.sk 2004-12-01 02:21:18 0000 I tried -fPIC, same problem. nerdboy@gentoo.org 2004-12-04 00:47:33 0000 Removing dso/configure patch as both superfluous and borked (on some arches). Instead I added DSO=auto to the config: > Checking TIFF support. > Using TIFF binary files from /usr/bin > Done checking TIFF support. > Checking for Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) support. > Looks like your system supports LINUX-style DSOs. It should now build DSOs correctly on all arches (in theory...) Try this version and see how it works for you. nerdboy@gentoo.org 2005-01-26 21:04:08 0000 Instead of "fixing" it by forcing it on all arches (which was the original cause of this bug), can you please modify your patch either so that DSO=auto works on hppa or else force it for just that one arch. Thanks... ojo@force.sk 2005-01-29 00:54:50 0000 Seems like hylafax-4.2.0-fPIC.patch for hylafax-4.2.0-r2.ebuild works on Pentium4 ht. gmsoft@gentoo.org 2005-05-12 09:24:33 0000 I wonder why this is assigned to me. I'm doing the hppa port, not fax stuff. nerdboy@gentoo.org 2005-05-16 00:48:45 0000 Closing as the original reporter hasn't reported a problem; re-open if needed.
