Description
Red Hat Bugzilla

tried it on a few machines... cannot find the bug I got caught by this bug. The solution was to "rename" my old .xchat config directory out of the way and let xchat create a new one. Worked fine after that, but I had to re-create my various settings. More info. Even after having xchat recreate all the config files (which allows the program to mostly work), going into "pallette" causes a hard crash. Reproducible on my workstation at will. Even more info... palette is not the only setting that can trigger this failure. Specifically, it appears the problem is a setting in the xchat.conf file. Deleteing this file and leeting xchat recreate it will always result in a working program. *** Bug 36668 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Sent mail upstream. Still happens with new 1.8.1 version. Ugh, I built XChat with debugging and this went away ;-) I'm not able to reproduce this in xchat 1.8.6 which is currently in rawhide, and will be released very soon for older releases, just because I'm such a nice guy. ;o) I'm marking it ERRATA. It should appear as errata within a week. |
