dev-python/visual-3.2.9: grozin@laptop ~ $ python Python 2.4.3 (#1, Sep 30 2006, 20:36:21) [GCC 4.1.1 (Gentoo 4.1.1)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from visual import * Segmentation fault Interesting thing is that it worked a week ago. Since then, there were a number of changes, and I cannot find which one have caused this failure. In particular, I installed numpy; updated xorg-server and xf86-video-i810; and many other things. Re-emerging visual does not help. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. python 2. from visual import * 3. Actual Results: Segmentation fault
I'll check it out. Could you attach the output of emerge --info, please?

I unmasked and installed visual-4_beta0. It segfaults just the same. Then I installed visual-4_beta15 (the current beta) using the same ebuild. And it works!
I ran into the same problem, but removing dev-python/numarray fixed it. visual was originally built with numarray, but then rebuilt with numeric instead (to see if it fixed my problem). It appears that, even though visual was rebuilt with numeric-support and _without_ numarray-support[1], it will attempt to use numarray for something: open("/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numarray/_objectarray.so", O_RDONLY) = 7 read(7, "\177ELF\1\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0\3\0\1\0\0\0\260\v\0\0004\0\0\0"..., 512) = 512 fstat64(7, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=14204, ...}) = 0 mmap2(NULL, 16948, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_DENYWRITE, 7, 0) = 0xb66bd000 mmap2(0xb66c0000, 8192, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_DENYWRITE, 7, 0x2) = 0xb66c0000 close(7) = 0 close(6) = 0 close(5) = 0 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) --- +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++ The same thing fixed 4_beta0, btw. I haven't tried with 4_beta15 (or 16, which is the current version) [1] * dev-python/visual-3.2.9 {:0} [R] doc -examples -numarray numeric
I'd propose to bump the version to 4_beta16 (the same ebuild is OK) and to unmask it (I use it on ~x86). This bug has been fixed in this latest beta. Why keep 4_beta0 if it does not work, and changing to a good one requires no work at all?
Created attachment 134883 [details, diff] patch for the numarray-package Alexander Færoy was so kind as to supply me with a patch to the numarray-package (where the real problem lies) that as far as I can see fixes the problem.
Works for me...
