Description Colin Macdonald 2005-12-04 12:58:18 UTC

On my ~x86 box, drgeo 1.1.0 starts up ok and shows its main window.  However, it
crashes with:
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x082d5f48 ***
Aborted
if I click File->Open, File->Evaluate, or Edit->Preferences, or File->New->Text.
(the hex number after fast is typically different everytime).

If I click File->New->Figure, I sometimes get the error message above and
sometimes a segmentation fault:

(drgeo:6183): libglade-WARNING **: Unknown GtkToolbar child property: width_request

(drgeo:6183): libglade-WARNING **: Unknown GtkToolbar child property: height_request
Segmentation fault

I just did a backtrace and it seems the problem is from using scim.  If I export
GTK_IM_MODULE="" before starting drgeo it seems to work fine.

Closing for now until I find more information.

Yes it was a false alarm.  I recently switched from gcc 3.3 to 3.4 and aparently
scim was causing problems for some GTK apps.  I rebuild scim and scim-pinyin and
now it works fine.  Leaving this closed invalid.
