Bug 160719 – hwsetup-1.2 segfaults with pciutils-2.2.3-r2

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description George Kargiotakis 2007-01-07 16:11:16 UTC]

I've tried hwsetup-1.2 from and it does not work in one of my machines with pciutils-2.2.3-r2. Whenever I run it, it produces a segmentation fault. It runs perfectly on all other i686 machines but not on the one that is i586.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge pcituils-2.2.3-r2
2. emerge hwsetup-1.2
3. hwsetup -n -v

Actual Results:  
(kernel 2.6.9)
#hwsetup -n -v
Trying method 1......cannot open /sys/bus/pci...No.
Trying method 2......using /proc/bus/pci...OK
Decided to use Linux-proc
Segmentation fault

(kernel 2.6.18)
#hwsetup -n -v
Trying method 1......cannot open /sys/bus/pci...OK
Decided to use Linux-sysfs
Segmentation fault


# emerge --info

hwsetup-1.2 with pciutils-2.2.0-r1 works just fine.
I have also tried it on newer kernels as well. It always segfaults.
I have even tried pciutils-2.2.4 but hwsetup-1.2 does not compile with it.
