Description Kai Schlüter 2003-03-27 16:23:50 UTC
After it compiled perfectly it always crashes on startup. Even if i start it as root. xawtv 
for example works perfect.

can get a backtrace by running it through gdb or from bug-buddy when it crashes?

it works fine for me.
Comment 2 Kai Schlüter 2003-03-28 10:24:19 UTC
Looks like i have the same problems which are reported in bug 13204. If i use an 
older gnomemeeting it crashes after 1:30. If i use the new one (0.96.1) it 
segaults on startup. Strange enough. 
Comment 3 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-03-28 16:01:56 UTC
i'm not really convinced it is the same problem until someone can show me a backtrace.

when it crashes, if a bug-buddy dialog pops up, proceed with it until there is a "Show Debugging Details" and then copy-and-paste the contents.

if it just crashes and the bug-buddy dialog doesn't come up, then try running it through gdb in a terminal. like:

$ gdb gnomemeeting

then type "run" at the (gdb) prompt. it will start up, and when it crashes, type "bt" at the prompt and copy and paste the backtrace from there

Here is the backtrace in gdb :

please run 
qpkg -v -f /usr/lib/libpt_linux_x86_r.so.1
Comment 6 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-03-30 19:41:55 UTC
it should be from pwlib, maybe try emerging pwlib and openh323 again. you'll need to unmerge pwlib and openh323 first.
Comment 7 Sébastien HOUZE 2003-04-01 01:55:16 UTC
OK. 
 
Seems that unmerge gnomemeeting and openh323 is sufficient. 
Comment 8 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-04-01 09:55:25 UTC
thanks. i've finally nailed down the problem with pwlib and openh323's inability to upgrade. i'm pretty confident that the upgrades can now go ahead without unmerging them, but only for the >=pwlib-1.4.11 and >=openh323-1.11.7.
