Kword crashes without creating a window. If I run it from a terminal the words "Alarm clock" are printed before I get the prompt back. I have deleted kwordrc without effect Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge kword 2. run kword 3. Actual Results: user@host>~/$kword Alarm clock Expected Results: Produced a window for me to type in kspread and kexi work fine. I don't believe that I have any old libraries laying around. My previous kword (previously unmerged) was installed without the rest of koffice.
Exactly the same problem here. emerge info: thomas@commander ~ $ emerge info Portage 2.0.51.22-r1 (default-linux/x86/2004.2/gcc34, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r0, 2.6.12 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.12 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.60GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.12 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.1-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/bind /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/mail/dspam /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LANG="en_US" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X aalib alsa apm arts avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts cdr crypt cups curl eds emboss encode esd fam flac font-server foomaticdb fortran gd gdbm gif gnome gphoto2 gstreamer gtk gtk2 imagemagick imlib ipv6 java jpeg junit kde ldap libg++ libwww mad mikmod motif mozilla mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses nls ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png postgres python qt quicktime readline samba sdl slang spell sqlite ssl svga tcltk tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts vorbis xine xml2 xmms xv zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, MAKEOPTS regards thomas
uh, problem solved. strace gave me: read(15, "# Generated with Aspell Dicts \"p"..., 4096) = 113 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) --- rt_sigaction(SIGALRM, {SIG_DFL}, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0 alarm(3) = 0 So i emerged aspell-0.60.2. The error occurred with aspell-0.50.5-r4. best regards thomas
Does the same holds for you, Christopher? It would be nice to see if there's a particular file in /usr/share/aspell/ that causes the crash.
I had the exact same problem with the exact same version of ASPELL and upgrading solved it. I unmerged kword last night so I'm afraid I can't help you track doen the offending aspell file. Thanks for your help. I am marking this fixed. If I am premature, please unmark it.
