Description Scott Robbins 2002-05-20 20:42:05 UTC 
When running w3m compiled from portage, I get the following error when I start 
the application

 *** debug ***: 
[/var/tmp/portage/gpm-1.20.0-r1/work/grpm-1.20.0/src/liblow.c(202)]: 

(It does not occur if I download w3m from w3m's site). 
When I posted a query about this on gentoo-user another person mentioned that 
he is receiving the same error with vim.  Spider said that it should be posted 
as a bug against gpm

I have experienced issues with this before, specifically with mc/mcedit.

I guess it is time to revisit this bug

adding naz, so we can hack this and unmask it again
Comment 3 Michael M Nazaroff (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-06-07 11:47:00 UTC 
OK add patch to gpm seems to have fixed all of these issue, the output should be
written to syslong not screen but doesn't seem work work that way.

naz
