hmm possibly an issue with sdiff? I don't have time to fight with it quite yet, but will revisit this one when I have some time with more details Nall: Can you try this out when you have a chance? Run etc-update and try to interactively merge the diffs and it should trigger it. yeah, i'll take it. what's your diff command set to in etc-update.conf or whereever? (so i can get the same behavior). does this happen every time? I am using the defaults, it should be set to sdiff of some sort, and it happens every time. diffutils-2.8.4-r3 (committed in CVS) fixes this bug in sdiff. if you have '-mabi=altivec -maltivec' in CFLAGS, sdiff also segfaults ... however, if you have just one or the other, sdiff works :) fixed |
