Hello!
This is a bug report for lyx 1.1.6fix4 built from source with gcc 2.95.3 on a recently installed machine (used slack for install). The xforms library is 0.89, and all the demo programs run well. The problem occurs when i go to the View menu and try to view the current document as anything (pdf, ps, dvi); it crashes with sigsegv. I tried with any documents: one-letter only, the lyx documentation, and some small one-line + eps ones, all without success. If i go to /tmp i can see the files generated correctly; everything looks like the problem happens when the converter finish running. This behaviour is completely reproductible. The top of the backtrace follows; i have the rest but it didn't seem relevant. Please tell me if you need anything, or want to try something. Thanks, Alberto PS: i'm not subscribed to the list, so please CC. ---------------------- Backtrace (cut at 76 chars, indented by hand): #0 0x405249f1 in __kill () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x405246d4 in raise (sig=6) at ../sysdeps/posix/raise.c:27 #2 0x40525e31 in abort () at ../sysdeps/generic/abort.c:88 #3 0x4051efd2 in __assert_fail () at assert.c:60 #4 0x824ec1b in basic_string<char, string_char_traits<char>, __default_alloc_template<true, 0> >::replace (this=0xbfffedf0, pos1=0, n1=4294967295, str=@0xbfffedec, pos2=137618496, n2=137618912) at /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-slackware-linux/2.95.3/../../../../include/g++-3/std/bastring.cc:126 #5 0x823ca01 in LSubstring::operator basic_string<char, string_char_traits<char>, __default_alloc_template<true, 0> > (this=0xbfffed00) at /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-slackware-linux/2.95.3/../../../../include/g++-3/std/bastring.h:216 #6 0x806d6cd in LaTeX::deplog (this=0xbffff1a4, head=@0xbffff06c) at LaTeX.C:656 #7 0x8067b94 in LaTeX::run (this=0xbffff1a4, terr=@0xbffff1c4, minib=0x8346dc8) at LaTeX.C:207 #8 0x80b6d20 in Converters::runLaTeX (this=0x82fd840, buffer=0x836ef68, command=@0xbffff2c4) at converter.C:825
