So, this started happening after a recent yum update? Can you look at /var/log/yum.log and see what packages were updated there? Calibre shouldn't have updated, as this is the version in the base fedora 19 repo and I've not pushed any updates to it since then. I also see you are running as root? Thats probibly a pretty bad idea... can you run it as a normal user and see if the problem persists? Hi Kevin, herewith the last updates: Jul 06 06:45:14 Updated: 2:libwbclient-4.0.7-1.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:17 Updated: 12:dhcp-libs-4.2.5-15.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:18 Updated: 12:dhcp-common-4.2.5-15.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:19 Updated: python-sssdconfig-1.10.0-16.fc19.noarch Jul 06 06:45:21 Updated: libldb-1.1.16-1.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:25 Updated: 2:samba-libs-4.0.7-1.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:28 Updated: 2:samba-common-4.0.7-1.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:29 Updated: libsss_idmap-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:31 Updated: 2:libsmbclient-4.0.7-1.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:33 Updated: 2:samba-winbind-4.0.7-1.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:34 Updated: libipa_hbac-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:34 Updated: kernel-tools-libs-3.9.9-301.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:37 Updated: sssd-client-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:39 Updated: 2:samba-winbind-clients-4.0.7-1.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:43 Updated: 2:samba-client-4.0.7-1.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:46 Updated: 12:dhclient-4.2.5-15.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:45:57 Updated: kernel-headers-3.9.9-301.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:56:24 Installed: kernel-PAE-devel-3.9.9-301.fc19.i686 Jul 06 06:56:27 Updated: hwdata-0.249-1.fc19.noarch Jul 06 07:07:22 Installed: kernel-devel-3.9.9-301.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:32 Updated: sssd-common-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:33 Updated: sssd-krb5-common-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:34 Updated: sssd-ad-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:35 Updated: sssd-ldap-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:36 Updated: sssd-ipa-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:37 Updated: sssd-krb5-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:38 Updated: sssd-proxy-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:38 Updated: sssd-1.10.0-16.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:42 Updated: kernel-tools-3.9.9-301.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:07:43 Updated: libiscsi-1.7.0-5.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:08:16 Installed: kernel-PAE-3.9.9-301.fc19.i686 Jul 06 07:08:19 Updated: perf-3.9.9-301.fc19.i686 I ran as root to make sure that no permission issues were in the way. The segfault error was first noticeable when running as my default user erick. In the meantime I tried reinstalling calibre through yum. No success. Yesterday evening I used calibre under my default user account without any trouble. Created attachment 769699 [details]
calibre as nonroot
to enable checking the segfault when running calibre as a nonroot user herewith this strace.
bug can be closed: Somehow the libqzeitgeist libraries in /usr/lib got lost when deinstalling zeitgeist and calibre depends on libqzeitgeist. ok. Thanks for letting me know. |
