feh crash: double free or corruption (fasttop)

Open DasExperimentator opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

I have a Raspberry Pi 3 connected to an HDMI TV displaying a slideshow with feh. The pictures are taken from a samba share mounted at Raspberry. I run feh as follows:

[code]/usr/bin/feh --quiet --recursive --randomize --full-screen --hide-pointer --reload 600 --caption-path captions/ --slideshow-delay 15 --fontpath /slideshow/captions/ --font Caveat-Bold.ttf/110 /slideshow/[/code]

It works great! But every now and then (a few minutes to a few hours) feh crashes with the following message:

[code]double free or corruption (fasttop) Aborted[/code]

Unfortunately, adding --verbose option doesn't provide any more information...

In feh 3.4 a memory leak was fixed, what version are you using? @DasExperimentator

Looks like Raspbian repo only offers feh 3.1.7 at the moment. That's what I have installed. I'll need to look into compiling a fresh feh instance from source.
