I just emerged elmo-1.3.2-r2 (latest stable). The emerge worked perfectly, and so did the elmoconf.pl script. Then when I actually tried to run elmo, it segfaulted immediately. No status or error messages, just "Segmentation Fault". My USE flags for elmo were +crypt +nls +ssl.
Please, reopen with emerge --info output and some debugging information. See http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/bugzilla-howto.xml

Here's my debugging data from gdb: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x08055316 in htable_insert () #0 0x08055316 in htable_insert () #1 0x08086a6c in confhold_register () #2 0x0804b11e in main () If you need more information, let me know and I'll do my best to provide it.
Please, post emerge --info as well.
I did, as an attachment.
(In reply to comment #5) > I did, as an attachment. /me is apparently blind :) Sorry.
What is the status of this bug? I also have the same segfault, under the same conditions.

Comment on attachment 90489 [details, diff] Fix for the startup segfault A little search showed me that the folks at debian already have fixed that issue, the bug report number in debian is 349191 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=349191). The complete diffs are in http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/e/elmo/elmo_1.3.0-1.1.diff.gz and they apply good on elmo-1.3.2, however the single patches that fixed the segfault (among other things are already attached in this bug report. Ive tested it and it works fine.
gone
