Done that, to no avail. I noticed that my configure output says: checking whether the systems std::string is really good... no Is that of any relevance? I also added to math_factory.C:226: ----------------------------------------------- [...] 226: lyxerr[Debug::MATHED] << "read symbol '" << tmp.name 227: << " inset: " << tmp.inset 228: << " draw: " << int(tmp.draw[0]) 229: << " extra: " << tmp.extra 230: << "'\n"; 231: } 232:lyxerr[Debug::MATHED] << "exit readSymbols" << endl; 233:} ----------------------------------------------- The output from "lyx -dbg MATHED" is then: [...] symbol abuse for # read symbol '# inset: mathnormal draw: 35 extra: special' exit readSymbols lyx: SIGSEGV signal caught Running LyX through gdb, reveals that it exits at the very end of readSymbols: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x81c14f4 in {anonymous}::readSymbols (filename=@0xbfbfc814) at math_factory.C:232 232 lyxerr[Debug::MATHED] << "exit readSymbols" << endl; Does that give us a clue? Apparently the "while (fs)"-loop ends without serious problems, or? Is there a problem with the destructor of a variable when readSymbols exits? What do you think? Rob.
