Description Diego Novillo 2000-10-17 12:31:45 UTC 
I upgraded gnorpm to 0.95-1 (the one posted to the RHN on Oct10) and
started having problems with the Install button. If there is a CD mounted,
pushing the Install button will cause the program to coredump.

I had to downgrade the program to the version that came in the 7.0 CD.
Comment 1 Alan Cox 2000-10-17 15:49:46 UTC 
Its rather broken yes. Ive sent msw the patches to do a working errata fix
instead. You can also find my (maintainer official rather than RH official) rpms
for 7.0 on ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/alan/GNORPM. Feedback on these test rpms
welcomed

I just installed Alan's gnorpm-0.95.1-4 from ftp.linux.org.uk, and it works fine
for me.  (I had also downgraded to the original 7.0 gnorpm in order to be able
to actually use it).  Thanks!

I was having similar problems and they were fixed when I upgraded to
gnorpm-0.95.1-4 also!  what was the cause of this error btw?
Comment 4 Alan Cox 2000-10-27 15:38:55 UTC 
The problem was incorrect options in a header file causing a bad build. How it
got past QA I dont know. Thats something we have to figure out internally.
Comment 5 Jeff Johnson 2000-10-30 18:33:39 UTC 
Fixed in gnorpm-0.95.1-5 errata.
