Re: Segfaults but ok in debugger

A quick google on perl+zim+segfault ... results in 1170 matches. I see several different error reported and this link in particular seems to match your problem:

The segfault is caused by the perl <-> C interface with the Gtk2 modules. Zim creates an array of your notebooks and the segfault happens when the list is attached to the listbox widget in Zim::GUI::NotebookDialog.pm. The wierd thing is that if you start it in the perl debugger it works fine so I know the perl code is fine. Try "perl -d /usr/bin/zim" then the "r" command.

Careful with that hash Eugene.

oh dear, I'm having an off day, aren't I? (head cold). I just assumed it was something I had done and didn't check the zim pages. Yes, it's that zim, the wiki-ish note taking application.	[reply]
