Okay, I think I've found the issue, based on a crash with liferea:- At wins.c:95, we have DEBUGLEVEL = 0;
Somewhere in source3/include/debug.h, we have #define DEBUGLEVEL *debug_level extern int DEBUGLEVEL; In source3/lib/debug.c, we have: int DEBUGLEVEL = &debug_all_class_hack; Based on this, all seems well and good, except that due to a problematic build system, libnss_wins.so dynamically resolves this debug_level variable when loaded by libc. In the case of liferea, it uses a global int debug_level somewhere around its source code. I reckon the other applications that are affected by this bug also use something similar. Given that Natty is really near, and I reckon it's too late to be trying something grand like controlling what symbols do and do not get exported/dynamically resolved during load, I have come up with a patch that renames debug_level to smb_debug_level in source3/include/debug.h. This should solve the issue for the time being. I'm now test-building the patched package, and will post a follow-up comment. ** Patch added: "debdiff-debuglevel.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/529714/+attachment/2089845/+files/debdiff-debuglevel.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/529714 Title: rhythmbox crashed with SIGSEGV in _nss_wins_gethostbyname_r() -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
