Description Mattias Ellert 2010-09-01 14:10:33 UTC
Description of problem:
doxygen crashes due to memory corruption on ppc

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1:doxygen-1.7.1-1.fc12.ppc

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try building xrootd-20100315-4.fc12.src.rpm for ppc.
  
Actual results:
Build works for i686, x86_64 and ppc64 - fails for ppc with the following error:
Running *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/doxygen: malloc(): memory corruption (fast): 0x10a5eb76 ***

Expected results:
Working build - no crash

Additional info:
This happens consistently. I have tried several times now and it crashes the same way every time.

Comment 1 Mattias Ellert 2010-09-01 21:26:16 UTC
This is due to broken thread handling in doxygen. The same problem is also found in debian:

There is a patch applied in the latest debian package...
