Bug 17563 – Segmentation Fault with cyrus-sasl

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED FIXED

[Description Bart Coddens 2003-03-15 11:54:18 UTC]

When I emerge cyrus-sasl, it compiles fine, 
but when I run e.g. saslpasswd2 testing
I always get a segmentation fault.

Other versions of cyrus-sasl produce the same behaviour.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge cyrus-sasl
2.saslpasswd2 test
3.

Actual Results:  
root@hellfire bart # saslpasswd2 test
Password:
Again (for verification):
Segmentation fault


Expected Results:  
It should create /etc/sasldb2 without errors

cyrus sasl seems to work fine with the greatest version of the berkeley database.  I don't get any segmentation faults any more.  This solution seems to work fine but further testing is needed

[Comment 2 Jason Wever (RETIRED) 2003-03-29 06:32:05 UTC]

Bart, do you remember which version of berkely db it was failing with?

[Comment 3 Bart Coddens 2003-03-30 05:23:00 UTC]

Weeve, the default db that emerge compiled at that time.  It should be in the 4.0.x range to work correctly I guess.

cyrus-*-2.1.13 is now in portage.

[Comment 5 Nick Hadaway 2003-06-22 10:30:18 UTC]

Other fixes have been made to the ebuild, init.d, and conf.d files. :)

[Comment 6 Nick Hadaway 2003-07-08 22:40:24 UTC]

cyrus-sasl-2.1.14 will be in portage shortly.
