Dear Jeffery, Thank you for your bug report. I will try and help you.
I am working on a new version of VCG, Do not have much internet time, just about 1-2h a week. I will need another 2-3 months before i have this version ready. Are these bugs showstoppers? It seems you have a workaround. I would like to see if we can get a non-gui version running of the layout engine and then run the program remotely for debugging. I am sure there are some debian remote testing systems available. Would it be possible to start the program in GDB and then let it crash? thanks, mike --- Jeffery von Ronne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Package: vcg > Version: 1.30debian-2 > Followup-For: Bug #152128 > > > I'm getting segfault everytime I try to startup xvcg.
