core dump for abipkgdiff
Hello, You are right, abipkgdiff crashes in this case and I reproduce it. Thank you for taking time to file that issue. So, just be clear, abipkgdiff expects you to provide it with RPMs that contain binaries which ABI you want to compare. This is not what you did. You gave it RPMs that contain debug info. The correct invocation should have been, for instance: abipkgdiff --d1 opencv-debuginfo-2.4.5-1.fc19.x86_64.rpm --d2 opencv-debuginfo-2.4.12.3-1.fc24.x86_64.rpm opencv-2.4.5-1.fc19.x86_64.rpm opencv-2.4.12.3-1.fc24.x86_64.rpm I agree 100% with you that abipkgdiff should not crash when given arguments it doesn't expect. But then, in this particular case, I am not sure how to *reliably* detect that a given package is a debug info package, as opposed to a package with meaningful ELF binary payloads. This bug report is interesting. Now I need to figure out how to reliably detect that a package is a debug info one. This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
