Description Paul DeStefano 2013-02-23 23:35:41 UTC
Description of problem:
I don't know what caused this problem.  I was reading e-mail just like I normally do.  It may or may not be related to the broken URL I tried to view a few minutes earlier, but it seems unlikely.  The URL was broken by '=\n' character pairs at the end of each line.  I tried to use an external command to view it, which works and has been working for ages, but failed to even launch an external viewer for this URL; that's suspicious, but not necessarily related to this at all since ALPINE didn't crash until a short while later.

Comment 11 Joshua Daniel Franklin 2013-03-03 17:05:32 UTC
Hi Paul,

Looks like the crash was when it was trying to make sure the address book filename was valid for your locale:

#7  0x00000000005c0699 in convert_to_locale (utf8str=utf8str@entry=0x14da900 "/home/<username>/.addressbook") at utf8.c:333

The literal "<username>" seems a bit odd and I see your env has "USER=<username>" as well but maybe that's something abrt started doing. Can you confirm what you have USER as on your machine?

env |grep USER

Also attaching your .pinerc wouldn't hurt, feel free to remove any personal info.

Comment 12 Paul DeStefano 2013-03-03 20:12:34 UTC
Sorry!  Yes, I have proper USER env var.  I just search/replaced it out of my bug report.  I've never changed the default address book file.

That's odd.  This happened a long time after I started alpine; I can't imagine it hadn't already consulted my address book for something.

Comment 15 Joshua Daniel Franklin 2013-12-07 14:27:58 UTC
Hi Paul,

I cannot reproduce the crash with the latest alpine 2.11, either with the default .pinerc (with only inbox-path changed and viewer defined as /bin/elinks) or your .pinerc with the long URL from BZ #955821 :

http://agency.governmentjobs.com/greenriveredu/default.cfm?acton=viewJob&jobID=616270&hit_count=yes&headerFooter=1&promo=0&transfer=0&WDDXJobSearchParams=%3CwddxPacket%20version%3D%271.0%27%3E%3Cheader%2F%3E%3Cdata%3E%3Cstruct%3E%3Cvar%20name%3D%27CATEGORYID%27%3E%3Cstring%3E-1%3C%2Fstring%3E%3C%2Fvar%3E%3Cvar%20name%3D%27PROMOTIONALJOBS%27%3E%3Cstring%3E0%3C%2Fstring%3E%3C%2Fvar%3E%3Cvar%20name%3D%27TRANSFER%27%3E%3Cstring%3E0%3C%2Fstring%3E%3C%2Fvar%3E%3Cvar%20name%3D%27FIND_KEYWORD%27%3E%3Cstring%3E%3C%2Fstring%3E%3C%2Fvar%3E%3C%2Fstruct%3E%3C%2Fdata%3E%3C%2FwddxPacket%3E

So my suggestion would be to try the latest alpine 2.11 if you aren't already:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=4982

There was also a fix for URL quoting in some configurations fairly recently:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.mail.pine/aEs0h0UPjQs

If you're continuing to have trouble with a specific URL, saving the full message to an empty mbox and saving it would be helpful. If it's a bug that effects the latest version of alpine and not Fedora specific, the upstream mailing list/newsgroup/group comp.mail.pine is probably the best place to report.

Comment 17 Fedora End Of Life 2013-12-21 15:23:51 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. 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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

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 prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 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 to Fedora 18's end of life.

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.

Comment 18 Fedora End Of Life 2014-02-05 23:03:52 UTC
Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 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.

Comment 19 Paul DeStefano 2014-06-09 22:54:43 UTC
I'm not sure this problem has been solved, but recent version of Alpine seems more robust with long URLs at least.  So, perhaps it was fixed.

I'm really just clearing the NEEDINFO.
