>Number: 12672 >Category: ports >Synopsis: netscape fails with "bus error" on RELENG_3 >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: medium >Responsible: freebsd-ports >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Fri Jul 16 19:00:00 PDT 1999 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Phil Homewood >Release: FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE i386 >Organization: >Environment: i486DX2/66, 32Mb RAM, 128Mb swap 3.2-STABLE, cvsupped around Jul 13 COMPAT22=yes in /etc/make.conf USE_128BIT=YES in /etc/make.conf (commented this and did "make deinstall reinstall"; it didn't help.) >Description: netscape-navigator-4.61 port installs, starts to run, pops up the license dialog, then dies with "bus error" (after the not-unexpected keysym translation warning cascade). This happens with the "stock" navigator and the "fortified" one. output of "ldconfig -aout -r -v" shows the correct a.out libs (/usr/lib/aout:/usr/lib/compat/aout:/usr/X11R6/lib/aout); LD_LIBRARY_PATH is unset. I'm guessing this one has to be pilot error, as surely there are others out there for whom this works, but if it can bite this pilot it may well bite others. This machine has never before run netscape under 3.x; I do still have a Netscape 1.1N binary lying around on another disk from my FreeBSD 2.1 days, which runs fine. >How-To-Repeat: # cd /usr/ports/www/netscape46-navigator && make install $ netscape >Fix: Unsure. I don't have an a.out gdb handy, and the ktrace output doesn't mean much to me. If anyone wants my ktrace.out to help debug this one just ask; it's nearly 3Mb. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
