Hi,
I've no idea to whom I should send this patch nor the procedure for doing so,
but when I compiled
bblaunch on Red Hat 8, it ran fine, but on Fedora Core 2, it kept segfaulting
(no core dump).
I tracked down the problem to a bad cast and, as it turns out, the variable in
question wasn't
even being used. I deleted the line and everything works just fine. Patch is
below my signoff.
Cheers,
Ovid
