>Number: 3226 >Category: bin >Synopsis: vi died with a core dump >Confidential: no >Severity: critical >Priority: high >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Mon Apr 7 21:40:01 PDT 1997 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Diana Northup >Organization: Kenneth Ingham Consulting >Release: FreeBSD 2.2.1-RELEASE i386 >Environment: The standard vi from the distribution; the complete hardware config is available if it would help. >Description: Working in the file and got the error: Error: unable to retrieve line XXX. The next thing I did ended up with vi dying with a segmentation fault. It created a recover file, and doing vi -r on it dies with the same error, but on a different (earlier) line. >How-To-Repeat: Get the recover files and try to recover. Take a look at the (remains of the) file. Relevant files are available via anonymous ftp from ftp://ftp.i-pi.com/pub and the files are: nsfcur.tex the original, un-mangled file. recover.004078 one of the vi recovery files vi.a04078 the other of the vi recovery files vi.core the core dump from one of the deaths. >Fix: None known. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
