Description of problem:
Kudzu segfaults when told to remove configuration for sharp zaurus

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Remove zaurus that had been previoiusly found by kudzu from cradle
2.Run kudzu
3.Hit enter at the Kudzu intro screen
4.Select Remove Configuration
5.Kudzu Segfaults
	

Actual Results:  Kudzu segfaulted

Expected Results:  Kudzu should have removed the configuration for the sharp
zaurus (which didn't work anyways)

The problem also occurs during the boot process if I hit a key at the kudzu prompt.

I have screen captures of the problem, if they would be helpful.

Actually, a gdb traceback would be better.

Comment 2 Paul Hirst 2002-11-30 18:14:52 EST

A gdb backtrace using the kudzu from redhat 8.0

#0  0x4207a4f3 in strlen () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6
#1  0x08052a1d in getAlias ()
#2  0x08052b46 in isAliased ()
#3  0x0804da04 in unconfigure ()
#4  0x0804ef5e in configMenu ()
#5  0x0804fc65 in main ()
#6  0x420158d4 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6

This problem doesn't seem to be new to redhat 8.0. The same problem was occuring
in redhat 7.3.

Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2005-09-23 15:20:13 EDT

This is presumably due to dev->driver and/or dev->device not being set.

This should be fixed in current rawhide kudzu.
