Package: vde2 Version: 2.1.6+r154-1+b1 Followup-For: Bug #460734 Hello again,
I have more information for this 'bug'. Well, it's actually not the bug I thought, since the error is due to poor error hadnling. In my experimentations with the package, the command line I used to use was wrong, hence the Bus error. Looking at the source code it looks like the main problems are because a lot of error checking (even as innocent as File not found) is not done, hence carrying around NULL pointers. In particular the problem was after vde_open in slirpvde.c (around line 429) which doesn't check if the open was succesful, and after vde_datafd (around line 443) where the return value is not check (in this case the previous open failed). Anyway, I think the error should be downgrade to wishlist of something like that. thanks graziano -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-rc7 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages vde2 depends on: ii adduser 3.105 add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libvdeplug2 2.1.6+r154-1+b1 Virtual Distributed Ethernet - Plu Versions of packages vde2 recommends: ii daemon 0.6.3-1 turns other processes into daemons -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
