When running oftpd, after a while it aborts like this: # oftpd -N ftp /home/ftp libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work # libgcc_s.so.1 is located in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5-20050130/libgcc_s.so.1 gcc-config -l shows: ----------------------------- # gcc-config -l [1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130 * [2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130-hardened [3] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130-hardenednopie [4] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130-hardenednossp ----------------------------- I have checked all over the gentoo forums, did a bunch of gcc-config profile changes, ran fix_libtool_files.sh on a bunch of gcc versions... and even now, after reemerging many a time oftpd (even using CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe" to see if it had to do with the compiler), I can't make the error go away. I don't know what's wrong... but my blind guess is that maybe oftp isn't correctly checking for pthread_cancel during it's configure stage? ----------------------------- checking for gmtime_r... yes checking for library containing socket... none required checking for library containing inet_ntoa... none required checking for inet_aton... yes checking for library containing pthread_self... none required configure: creating ./config.status ----------------------------- There is no "checking for pthread_cancel", which I have seen in other configure scripts for other projects. I am at a pretty dead end, I've had to deal with this annoyance for a couple of months now (using a crontab to relaunch the service :/), and honestly... I want it fixed. I might go mail the maintaner from oftpd next if I can't get help from this bugzilla (it's the logical step after already having tried the forums).

Are youu still experiencing this problem? I can't reproduce it...
Eh ... always? I already gave up on trying to fix this.. I just relaunch it every 15 minutes using cron... # oftpd -N ftp /home/ftp/ <..some time later after some transfers have been done...> libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work Aborted # It's the kind of problem noone else seems to have.... *shrugs*, I could try running it under gdb, but... (gdb) run Starting program: /usr/sbin/oftpd -N ftp /home/ftp/ (no debugging symbols found) [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread -1210108240 (LWP 8614)] [New Thread -1210352720 (LWP 8615)] [New Thread -1218745424 (LWP 8626)] Program exited normally. I could try to help debug it further if there's a way, altough currently I just stopped paying attention to it as I had much else to do....
