Segfault on launch in SliTaz
Hi There, I'm building dvtm from source. I've tried both the 0.15 tarball release and the master branch from the GitHub repo. I'm running from within VirtualBox.
My build appears to work correctly: https://gist.github.com/GrooveStomp/19900f5f6ad4b9398fefa929e1337078
When running I get a segfault: https://imgur.com/a/hKeDg
I've recorded a debugging session that hopefully illuminates what's going on: https://gist.github.com/GrooveStomp/1ad5b0029cbbcfb18f4c5043fe2f58d4
I've tried reading through the code and making sense of it, but there are a few too many concepts at play that I'm not familiar with, so I figured it was time to reach out to the author. :-)
Sounds like your kernel is too old to run dvtm
. SliTaz runs ancient kernels from the 2.4 and 2.6 release series, and those kernels probably have issues with current versions of ncurses
.
