Bug 117487 – joe 3.2 on segfaults when trying to load joerc

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description -:Szab100:- 2006-01-02 13:40:31 UTC]

hi,

 the system is an up to date hardened x8_64 (amd64) machine.. i just did an emerge -Dauv world last week and now joe (my favourite editor) segfaults when trying to load /etc/joe/joerc.. strace/gdb doesn't tell too much.. 
so, i downgraded to 3.0-r2 and its working well now..
please look after it, maybe it's a simple mistyped config-paramater error..

[Comment 1 Tom Knight (RETIRED) 2006-01-02 13:58:32 UTC]

Please attach your /etc/joe/joerc and your ~/.joerc and post your emerge --info, thanks.

[Comment 2 -:Szab100:- 2006-01-02 14:03:14 UTC]

there's no .joerc just /etc/joe/joerc and its the package-default comes with 3.2 amd64 ebuild...

Please try it with CFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe".

[Comment 5 Tom Knight (RETIRED) 2006-01-26 12:16:21 UTC]

I'm resolving this as NEEDINFO, please re-open it if you still have problems after rebuilding joe with the CFLAGS shown in comment 4.

I still have this problem on our amd64 systems (these are EMT64 xeon systems really) with this the CFLAGS you gave..
it segfaults when trying to process /etc/joerc

I have the same problem...

I've just added the joe 3.4 ebuild, I did see a bug report that looked similar to this that has been fixed (although I can't check as sourceforge is down). Please try out 3.4 and see if the problem has been fixed. If not I'll get one one the hardened/amd64 guys to help out.

[Comment 10 Lorand Kelemen 2006-07-16 12:36:16 UTC]

Just tried a quick emerge and edit. Added a custom joerc and seems fine.

Thanks! Will notify this bug if I encounter errors...

I'll mark this as resolved upstream, please re-open the bug if it happens again.
