Bug Description

Binary package hint: pan

Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch)
Release: 9.04
Architecture: 64-bit
Pan version: 0.132-3.1ubuntu1

Jaunty fully updated as of 18:00GMT 12th Mar 2009.

Pan starts normally, but requesting new headers be downloaded causes Pan to crash without error box or Apport startup.
Starting Pan from a terminal has the same result, except the terminal reports "Segmentation fault (core dumped)".

"cat /var/log/messages|grep pan" gives the following message:-
"segfault at 7fffbf389ff8 ip 00007f37b42bc789 sp 00007fffbf38a000 error 6 in libc-2.9.so[7f37b4242000+168000]"

Update: Workaround for me was to build Pan 0.133 from source. Now working fine.

Update 2: Disregard update 1. Pan still crashing. Unusable in this state.

Update 3: Seems to have been a corrupt cache file. Purging & re-installing has fixed it. Marking invalid.

Changed in pan:
status: New → Invalid

Crashes for me too on two different machines.
No clue when run from terminal either.

Complete reinstalled from the Jaunty release cd and now no more crashes.
The installs that were giving me crashes on Pan header loads were updated Jaunty Alpah 5 dev. editions.
(Thought the Alpha + updates were the same as a clean release install, seems not in my case)
