Bug 206357 – games-mud/kmuddy-0.8 crash if connected for 10 hours

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tanktalus 2008-01-17 16:30:56 UTC]

If you're connected for 10 hours, an overflow happens, and you get a SIGSEGV

Reproducible: Always




There is a patch at the URL which I've tested.  Didn't work the first time in an ebuild, so I'll attach the patch that I tested (and is working now) in an ebuild.

patch that fixes this problem

I just added it to the epatch command in the ebuild, re-merged, and have been connected to a mud for nearly 11 hours now.

was this patch sent upstream?

[Comment 3 Tanktalus 2008-01-20 04:24:16 UTC]

This patch was stolen from the upstream forums, where the author had already acknowledged it and seemed to accept it (see the URL)

[Comment 4 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2008-01-24 05:50:53 UTC]

ok, it's in there.

If you are mud-addicted, remerge for the patch.
