Description Jacob Hunt 2014-07-29 20:22:02 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1087940 +++

Description of problem:
Upstream bug http://sourceforge.net/p/cscope/bugs/200/

cscope reports "File does not have expected format" when performing
a lookup for a C symbol.

This happens for some of the symbols.  On is reported upstream.
I can consistently reproduce by looking for skb_mac_gso_segment
in the kernel source tree.

The index is built using 
 # cscope -q -b -R -k

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build a symbol db using
   # cscope -q -b -R -k
2. Launch cscope
3. Search for skb_mac_gso_segment C symbol

Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:
Upstream bug includes a patch (http://sourceforge.net/p/cscope/bugs/200/#10cf).
I've built a test rpm and verified that the patch solves this problem for me.
