Instead of showing the error, it segfaults: $ cronolog --prev=prev curr Segmentation fault Short opts work, however: $ cronolog -P prev curr A current log symlink is needed to mantain a symlink to the previous log Here's the backtrace: #0 __strncmp_sse2 () at ../sysdeps/x86_64/strcmp.S:106 #1 0x000000326c6c6aa6 in _getopt_internal_r (argc=3, argv=0x7fffffffe0a8, optstring=0x402a76 "ad:eop:s:z:H:P:S:l:hVx:", longopts=0x604340, longind=0x0, long_only=0, d=0x326c97aee0, posixly_correct=0) at getopt.c:542 #2 0x000000326c6c7b0b in _getopt_internal (argc=<value optimized out>, argv=<value optimized out>, optstring=<value optimized out>, longopts=<value optimized out>, longind=<value optimized out>, long_only=<value optimized out>, posixly_correct=0) at getopt.c:1131 #3 0x000000326c6c7bf3 in getopt_long (argc=<value optimized out>, argv=<value optimized out>, options=<value optimized out>, long_options=<value optimized out>, opt_index=<value optimized out>) at getopt1.c:66 #4 0x000000000040118a in main (argc=3, argv=0x7fffffffe0a8) at cronolog.c:174
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '13'. 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 13'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 13 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

"cronolog --prev=prev curr" does not segfault for me on Fedora 14, i686. Maybe a 64-bit specific bug? Please update the version number if you're still experiencing the problem.
Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
