Segfault for every single tty. Experiencing this, since last binutils & glibc update. Portage 2.0.49-r20 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.2.5-r2,2.3.2-r9, 2.4.22-gentoo-r5)
could you provide `emerge info` and a gdb backtrace ? and what version of kbd ?
A backtrace form a start script? gdb `./consolefont start` results in >Excess command line arguments ignored.

Can you please try kbd-1.08-r4?
same problem with kbd-1.08-r4
i meant run the consolechars prog yourself and when it segfaults, type 'bt' and give us the output

what does `qpkg -f /usr/bin/consolechars` show ? i dont seem to have this on my machine ... also, whats with your dual glibc ? seems like dualing 2.2.x and 2.3.x is going to screw up your stuff

It's old cruft more or less. I'll unmerge the old ebuild, but I can't see why this should change anything, because there was no problem with previous 2.3.x versions and I didn't merged glibc-2.2.x again.
I'm not the only one with this problem btw. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=126092
unmerged the old glibc, problem persists
`emerge -C console-tools console-data` those packages are deprecated then re-emerge baselayout and see if you still have problems
Oh, I wonder why these deprecated ebuilds were not removed by portage. Big thx for tracking this down! Had to reboot, but everything seems to be fine now.
1. emerge -C console-tools console-data` 2. re-emerge baselayout That solved the error on a PC here, too.
