emerge --info

All applications depending on gdal crash when spatialite/sqlite files are used. It doesn't happen on debian based distros.

Reproduce:

1. Download sample database from https://www.gaia-gis.it/spatialite-2.3.1/test-2.3.sqlite.gz
2. gunzip
3. ogrinfo test-2.3.sqlite

Produces as SEGFAULT.

(The attachments refer to version 1.11.1-r3 but I also tried 2.0.0 and even compiled master manually. Without difference.)

Here's the valgrind output (using a non debug-build) of the problem:

same crash happens with spatialite 3.0.1

[Comment 3 Daniel Hiepler 2015-08-17 13:08:21 UTC]

The bug is gone with this combination of versions:

* libspatialite-4.3.0 (compiled from the source tarball)
* dev-db/sqlite-3.8.10.2
* sci-libs/gdal-2.0.0

So it's definetly linked to libspatialite, which causes the bug. The latest available version in portage is 3.0.1

Thanks Daniel for working this out, dev-db/spatialite-4.3.0 is the oldest version in tree for some time.
