PGP 2.6.2 is installed, logged in as root, but root does not have $HOME/.pgp subdirectory. "rpm --checksig --nopgp" works. "rpm --checksig" dumps core. Core dump is available at http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Peaks/5799/rpm-coredump.tar.gz
*** Bug 3523 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** "rpm --checksig" core dumps with a segmentation fault when run by a non-root user with pgp 2.6.3 or 2.6.2. When run by root, or when run by a normal user but with "--nopgp", there is no problem. An strace ends like this ... fcntl(3, F_GETFL) = 0 (flags O_RDONLY) fstat(3, {st_mode=S_ISUID|S_ISVTX|0406, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 mmap(0, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x40001000 _llseek(0x3, 0, 0, 0xbfff7a50, 0x1) = -1 ESPIPE (Illegal seek) read(3, "\n\7Keyring file \'/home/borcher"..., 4096) = 274 read(3, "", 4096) = 0 close(3) = 0 munmap(0x40001000, 4096) = 0 wait4(1027, [WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 1], 0, NULL) = 1027 unlink("/var/tmp/rpmsihPzRUu") = 0 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) --- +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++ -- Al Borchers alborchers ------- Additional Comments From jbj 06/17/99 11:06 ------- What does "rpm -q rpm" report? ------- Email Received From Al Borchers <alborchers> 06/17/99 15:45 ------- ------- Additional Comments From jbj 06/17/99 16:23 ------- Do you have pgp5 installed? Are your ~/.rpmmacros and/or PGP_* env variables different? Could you also try rpm-3.0.1-12.6.0 from ftp.rpm.org? A couple of signature (as well as other) problems are fixed there. ------- Additional Comments From alborchers 06/19/99 23:50 ------- Ah, yes, the .rpmmacro files are different on the two machines. On the machine where it does NOT core dump, there is NO .rpmmacro file. On the machine where it DOES core dump, there is an .rpmmacro file with this line %_pgp_path /home/borchers/.pgp/pubring.pgp This probably came from an earlier 5.2 installation. When I removed this file, I could do "rpm --checksig" as a non-root user.

Fixed in rpm-3.0.2-0.9. Thanks a lot for the report, particularly for pointing out how to reproduce (missing $HOME/.pgp).
