Last modified: 2008-05-01 11:37:57 EDT
When command line option which corresponds to a file is set to a directory - tripwire crashes. tripwire -c /tmp/ Segmentation fault (core dumped) tripwire -d /tmp/ Segmentation fault (core dumped) non-existent files are OK, it does not crash, it just prints error message. tripwire -c /tmp/ggggg couldn't open /tmp/ggggg: No such file or directory
i can't reproduce this problem. tripwire -d /tmp/ Unknown mode specified: -d Use --help to get help. i don't see Segmentation fault (core dumped)
