Description Brian S. Stephan 2003-06-19 20:57:18 UTC

Freeciv with the GTK2 client (not sure about others) will have a segmentation
fault if trying to cleanly disconnect from a server while the Cities Report
window is open and cities exist for the civ. Other Report windows result in a
clean disconnect, dropping client to startup windows.

Relevant versions:
freeciv-1.14.0-r1
gtk+-2.2.2-r1
(not sure if this is specific to this package combo or not)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect the client to a server (either local or remote)
2. Build a city if necessary, open the Cities Report window (F1)
3. Attempt to disconnect via Game -> Disconnect

Actual Results:  
Console output below:

Segmentation fault
** (civclient:21528): WARNING **: Invalid UTF8 string passed to
pango_layout_set_test()
[bash prompt]

Expected Results:  
Disconnect cleanly, drop to starup windows

I can reproduce this.

Brian - have you reported this bug upstream to http://www.freeciv.org/?

Seems like a pretty easy bug to fix if you're familiar with the freeciv
source.  I, however, am not.  Probably by the time I get time to track this
bug down properly it will be fixed in a newer release of freeciv.

This bug has been fixed in the freeciv CVS source.  I've added the latest snapshot
from today to portage CVS, marked ~x86.  It seems to be very stable and playable.
This bug in particular is fixed as far as I can tell.
