Description parv 2002-12-08 18:50:01 UTC
vncviewer, from net/vnc v3.3.5, core dumps (about 4 MB file) w/
signal 11 after running for about a minute on its own.  here is how
i started it (on localhost)...

  vncserver :1 ; vncviewer -passwd <passwd file> localhost:1


gdb shows (not complied w/ debugging support)...

  Core was generated by `vncviewer'.
  Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

  #1  0x0 in ?? ()


...compliling this port w/ -g option (in /etc/make.conf) yields the
same result.  (perhaps beacuse -DNDEBUG turns off debugging ... just
guessing.)

How-To-Repeat: 
install net/vnc v3.3.5.  run vncviewer.  wait for it to core w/ signal
11.

still a problem with vnc 3.3.6 ?

yup, no difference... once it cored just after starting; dumped core
again while working in bare xterm after a few key strokes.

yes, it seems that has solved the problem, or at least compiling w/
-O2 doesn't make vnc (v3.3.6) core dump for some reason.

That also solves the problem for me, and is neater than forcing a
compilation with -O2 or no optimization. Patch below, if parv can
confirm success too. I'll update the bug filed with the VNC folks.

This fits with the backtrace:

(gdb) bt

Thanks!

OK, James.  I'll handle this.

"works for me" too.  or, at least vnc did not crash while playing
around in tvtwm for about 15-20 minutes.

Hi,

Yes - you're quite right. Well spotted!
