tag 446050 help thanks The current version of liferea in Debian unstable (1.4.3-1), as well as the latest upstream version (1.4.5) fail if used together with libsqlite3-0 from experimental (3.5.1-1). The program works correctly with the versions in testing and unstable (3.4.2-1, 3.4.2-2).
The following error mesage is printed to the console: *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/liferea-bin: free(): invalid pointer: 0x08514040 *** This error apparently kills the db thread in liferea, so that it never gets to the point of showing the UI. If I set MALLOC_CHECK_=2 then glibc calls abort on detecting this error. Using gdb to set a breakpoint on abort I get a most unhelpful backtrace: Breakpoint 2, 0xb7322ff6 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0xb7322ff6 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0xb7363c15 in ?? () from /lib/libc.so.6 #2 0x00000001 in ?? () #3 0xb7e86bb4 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.0 #4 0xbfc50588 in ?? () #5 0xb7e86bb4 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.0 #6 0x00000000 in ?? () The addresses inside libsqlite3.so.0 are in the data section of the library (they're consistently offset 0xbb4 into it, actually) from which I deduce the stack is getting corrupted. Any help on debugging this or pointers on how to track it would be appreciated. -- Rodrigo Gallardo GPG-Fingerprint: 7C81 E60C 442E 8FBC D975 2F49 0199 8318 ADC9 BC28
