Created attachment 385684 [details, diff] Patch to prevent nut-scanner segfault. nut-scanner segfaults due to calling pthread_join on an invalid thread_t id, when it run without arguments. The attached patch solves the problem by only calling pthread_join if pthread_create has been called.

after the patch it still segfaults (gdb) exec /usr/bin/nut-scanner (gdb) (gdb) run Starting program: /usr/bin/nut-scanner warning: Could not load shared library symbols for linux-vdso.so.1. Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"? [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1". Cannot load USB library (libusb-0.1) : file not found. USB search disabled. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007ffff74121db in ?? () from /usr/lib64/libltdl.so.7
can you try 2.7.2?
please test with sys-power/nut-2.7.4-r8, reopen, if the bug still exists At least here it does not segfault with sys-power/nut-2.7.4-r8: /usr/bin/nut-scanner Scanning USB bus. No start IP, skipping NUT bus (old connect method)
