Want to tryout Wings 3D. Wings dies with a segmentation fault at startup.

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

[meisel@localhost ~]$ rpm -q wings
wings-0.98.32b-7.fc5

[meisel@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep erlang
erlang-esdl-0.95.0630-6.fc5
erlang-R11B-0.1.fc5

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start the wings shortcut "graphics/Wings 3D" -> dies without output
2. Start wings in a console -> segmentation fault output
3.
  
Actual results:

[meisel@localhost ~]$ wings
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.5 [source] [async-threads:0] [hipe]

Eshell V5.5  (abort with ^G)

  [{buffer_size,32},{depth_size,32},{stencil_size,8},{accum_size,16}]
Actual: RGBA: 2 16 16 16 Depth: 16 Stencil: 16 Accum: 16 16 16 16

Expected results:

My first bug report. I hope there are enough informations for you. And sorry for
my bad english ^_^

Comment 1 Gérard Milmeister 2006-05-23 17:08:38 UTC
Yes, I know of this. The problem is the new version of Erlang used
to build against. Strangely I noticed the bug only AFTER the builds
were already in the repositories. I hope, that with a new version
of the ESDL library will fix this soon. Until then, the only
thing you can do is use a previous version of wings and Erlang.

Comment 2 Gérard Milmeister 2006-06-08 17:24:39 UTC
I created a compat-erlang package with the previous version of erlang
and rebuild wings against it. This should work now. Please try this.
The package should hit the repositories in the next few days.

Comment 3 Andreas Meisel 2006-06-16 08:27:15 UTC
Hello, sorry for my late answer. Yes, with your last updates, wings is working
again. Thank you
