This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team,
not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Please describe as succinctly as possible:
- What happened.
- What you thought should have happened.
- Precisely what you were doing at the time.
Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have.
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
I compiled and installed 21.4.8 what seemed like normally. But on startup, xemacs
segfaults.
Here is the backtrace:
Lisp backtrace follows:
# bind (frame-being-created)
make-frame(nil #<x-device on ":0.0" 0x2558>)
frame-initialize()
# bind (debugger debug-on-error command-line-args-left)
command-line()
# (condition-case ... . ((t (byte-code " o?G" ... 1))))
# bind (error-data)
normal-top-level()
# (condition-case ... . error)
# (catch top-level ...)
Segmentation fault
When I ran xemacs under gdb, here is the result:
Starting program: /usr/local/bin/xemacs
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x400ed75a in XtInitializeWidgetClass () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6
================================================================
I am using xfree86 4.2, with SuSE 4.2.0-64 rpms.
