Backtrace for prelink /usr/bin/glob2 (5.78 KB, text/plain)
2010-01-15 14:18 UTC, Nicola Soranzo
no flags Details

Description Oron Peled 2010-01-10 09:18:03 UTC
Description of problem:
prelink abort when run on /usr/bin/glob2

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glob2-0.9.4.1-2.fc12.i686
prelink-0.4.2-4.fc12.i686


Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install glob2
2. prelink /usr/bin/glob2
  
Actual results:
# prelink /usr/bin/glob2
prelink: conflict.c:763: prelink_build_conflicts: Assertion `j < ndeps' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

Expected results:
clean run.

Additional info:
1. Happened on at least two F12 machines I have.
2. rpmverify glob2 is clean (no output).
3. yum remove glob2 && yum install glob2 -- still the same problem.

Comment 1 Nicola Soranzo 2010-01-14 13:42:22 UTC
Looks like a duplicate of bug #543646.

Not really:
 * The only common thing is that prelink aborts.
 * There are tons of other *similar* bugs.
 * There is no reproducible test in the other bug reports!
 * The current bug report is different, because it:
   - Have a source file + line of the abort.
   - List a specific executable you an test (/usr/bin/glob2)
   - The test is against a standard package in fedora.

Nicola, can you reproduce the bug on your own system?
 * yum install glob2
 * prelink /usr/bin/glob2

What are the results?

Comment 3 Nicola Soranzo 2010-01-15 14:17:30 UTC
Yes, I can reproduce it.
I'm also attaching a backtrace, which looks similar to the one in bug #543646.

Having the same issue on x86-64 Fedora 13.

glob2-0.9.4.4-1.fc13.x86_64
prelink-0.4.3-3.fc13.x86_64

Aborted (core dumped)

Comment 6 Bug Zapper 2010-11-04 01:23:18 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 12.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '12'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

*** Bug 543646 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 8 Oron Peled 2010-11-06 23:39:35 UTC
Also, comment 5 claim that the original problem persist in F-13.
So I'm bumping this bug to F-13 (I no longer have such a box, so
I cannot immediately test against it)

Just checked on fully updated F-14:
$ rpmquery prelink glob2
glob2-0.9.4.4-2.fc14.i686
prelink-0.4.3-4.fc14.i686

$ prelink /usr/bin/glob2
prelink: Could not find virtual address slot for /usr/lib/libfontforge.so.1.0.0

So the original issue reported on F-12, F-13 is gone in F-14. However, it
was replaced with some other issue.

On my Fedora 14 box the previous error is still present:

$ prelink /usr/bin/glob2
prelink: conflict.c:763: prelink_build_conflicts: Assertion `j < ndeps' failed

So probably your error happens before mine. BTW, I don't have fontforge installed, you can try to remove the package to see if you still see the old error.

Comment 10 Oron Peled 2010-11-08 11:18:24 UTC
Retesting:
  $ prelink /usr/bin/glob2
  prelink: conflict.c:763: prelink_build_conflicts: Assertion `j < ndeps' failed.
  Aborted (core dumped)

(didn't touch fontforge).

So:
 * The original bug still exist for F-14 as well as F-13.
 * Please ignore my comment 8. If I'll encounter it again I'll
   file a separate bug (with more testing/data).

Comment 11 John Watzke 2011-02-27 22:04:21 UTC
This original bug should be bumped up to F15.  This still exists and is reproducible in F15.

Done. Thanks for testing it!

Comment 13 Nick Urbanik 2011-04-06 10:14:51 UTC
Some programs (including oowriter) didn't work until
prelink was able to complete.  The workaround is:
Add the following line to /etc/prelink.conf:
-b /usr/bin/glob2

There is some more info on this Debian bugreport: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=620630#22, apparently

I can confirm that it is fixed in Fedora 17.

Confirmed as well (Fedora 17)
