Bug 49650 – Audacity 1.2.0-r1 SigSegV's on startup with AMD64

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andrew D Kirch 2004-05-01 14:02:52 UTC]

Upon starting audacity it segfaults with sigsegv.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge audacity
2. run audacity as any user (root doesn't seem to fix this so I'm assuming it's not an access problem)

Actual Results:  
the select language dialog occurs, after selection of english, the dialog closes
, and the application dies with sigsegv as detailed below.

Expected Results:  
Creation of the main audacity form, with normal startup of the application.
