Public bug reported: Try running `colordiff -u pulseaudio_output pulseaudio_output2`several times and look at the end of output. You might see following:
<code> ... - userdata=0x6338a0) at pulsecore/pdispatch.c:241 -#6 0x00007f84fe613163 in pstream_packet_callback (p=0x63c460, - packet=0x6b8410, creds=0x63c5b0, userdata=<value optimized out>) + userdata=0x634b40) at pulsecore/pdispatch.c:241 +#6 0x00007ff134f6f163 in pstream_packet_callback (p=0x64a720, at pulsecore/protocol-native.c:3105 ... </code> or following: <code> - userdata=0x6338a0) at pulsecore/pdispatch.c:241 -#6 0x00007f84fe613163 in pstream_packet_callback (p=0x63c460, - packet=0x6b8410, creds=0x63c5b0, userdata=<value optimized out>) + userdata=0x634b40) at pulsecore/pdispatch+#6 0x00007ff134f6f163 in pstream_packet_callback (p=0x64a720, + packet=0x639a60, creds=0x64a870, userdata=<value optimized out>) at pulsecore/protocol-native.c:3105 </code> and eventually you might see correct result: <code> - userdata=0x6338a0) at pulsecore/pdispatch.c:241 -#6 0x00007f84fe613163 in pstream_packet_callback (p=0x63c460, - packet=0x6b8410, creds=0x63c5b0, userdata=<value optimized out>) + userdata=0x634b40) at pulsecore/pdispatch.c:241 +#6 0x00007ff134f6f163 in pstream_packet_callback (p=0x64a720, + packet=0x639a60, creds=0x64a870, userdata=<value optimized out>) at pulsecore/protocol-native.c:3105 </code> With plain `diff -u pulseaudio_output pulseaudio_output2` I never experience such problems. Looks very much like there is some race condition or memory corruption somewhere in colordiff script or perl itself. I use Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64. colordiff version: 1.0.6-2 perl-base version: 5.8.8-12 ** Affects: colordiff (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Colordiff misses one line of output or eats enf-of-line https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/248917 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
