And it always ended up in: [8060651.170293] xscreensaver[27148]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fbd2e06aedf sp 00007fff27f08588 error 4 in libc-2.13.so[7fbd2df50000+182000] An example would be running /usr/bin/Xephyr :99 & DISPLAY=:99 xscreensaver in a shell that was started after fork/execve with envp set to NULL. Anyway. Even if this isn't probably the common use case I would expect a program *not* to segfault if an expected environment variable, like PATH in this case, isn't set. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
