This is kind of difficult -- I don't have Fedora 8 at the moment, and I cannot reproduce it here. So there are some things which may help to discover what's going on: 1) upgrade your computer to the latest version of f8-updates-testing, so that all libraries are in their latest versions 2) install yum-utils package and then run package-cleanup --problems Fix all problems which it shows (if any). 3) rpm -V pspp libglade2 If all this fails to show anything interesting (and you can still reproduce the behavior), I would need to collect more debugging information Please install pspp-debuginfo (debuginfo-install is from yum-utils package). debuginfo-install pspp Then run gdb psppire That will start psppire running inside of gdb debugger. Then use command run and do whatever you did to make psppire crash. When it happens, you should go back to the gdb and run (gdb) thread apply all backtrace This produces usually many screens of the text. Copy all of them into a text editor and attach the file to the bug as an uncompressed attachment. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.
I tried on a fedora 9 that I have available, and it crashes too. Errors looks identical. Do you have a fedora 9 available to test on or should I go ahead on the debug-path you outlined for fedora 8? Thanks Bjørge
Created attachment 323334 [details] screenshot of non-reproducing this bug OK, I am Red Hat so I have some possibilities -- got absolutely clean machine with F8-GOLD, upgraded to the latest updates-testing and installed psppire and it just works. I would really suspect that there must be some corruption involved. So, I would ask you to go through the debugging steps I have outlined above.
Also, if I could get versions of libglade2 package? And what's your architecture?
OTOH, if you are able to reproduce this on F9 (updated to the latest updates-testing, of course) then we should probably move this bug there -- F8 will pass End of Support pretty soon.
tested both on i386 and x86_64
Sorry, I got no response about ways how to reproduce it here. Closing as WORKSFORME. Feel free to reopen with additional information on how to make it non-working here.
Sorry, I forgot. I just compiled it myself and then it works fine.
To fix the problem you must type: "cd /usr/lib/pspp; ln -s libpsppire.so.0 libpsppire.so". It just can't find libpsppire.so, becouse it's named "libpsppire.so.0.0.0". I'm using Fedora 10.
Reopening, will investigate later. Thanks for the hint.
Wojciech Sluszniak's solution works for me to. I am also using Fedora 10 and PSPP 0.6.1 Thanks!
