Segmentation fault upon launch (gourmet-0.12.2)

[ockham]

Converted from SourceForge issue 1589636, submitted by SourceForge user s_evans on 2006-11-02 23:56:49 UTC.

I had been running gourmet-0.8.5.14 on Slackware 10.2.
I just finished a clean installation of Slackware 11.0
and now gourmet-0.12.2 will not run... :(
I get the following:

bash-3.1# gourmet -vvv
DEBUG_LEVEL= 3
DEBUG:
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gourmet/gglobals.py:

HELP!!

One last comment. I assume (hopefully correctly) that the
following will also segfault on your system:

$ python

import gnomeprint

If that doesn't segfault, I'm guessing some combination of
the following will:

import gtk
import gnomeprint.ui
import gobject

If you get one of those to segfault, of course, that's what
you want to mention in your bugreport to the slackware
maintainers.

Ok then -- your gnomeprint installation is broken (either
libgnomeprint or the libgnomeprint python bindings). I've
seen these kinds of segfaults in the past when there are
version inconsistencies -- so if it's possible that you have
e.g. libgnome and libgnome-python versions that don't agree,
or gtk2 and libgnome versions that don't agree, that could
explain the segfault. If you really have the vanilla
slackware stuff, I'd file a bug with the slackware package
that includes the gnomeprint bindings (whichever package
provided
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnomeprint/_print.so).

A workaround would be to disable gnomeprint. I believe you
can do so with the following.

$ gourmet --force-lprprint

This means you won't have fancy print output. But that's ok
-- the PDF output is better quality anyway, so just use PDF
export wherever possible and then print from that file.

(Note that since this isn't a gourmet bug but a bug in one
of its dependencies, I'm closing the bug.

Ok... this time, try the following:

$ python -v

import gourmet

You'll get a lot more debug info printed out -- hopefully
this will let us see exactly what import is causing the crash.

No such luck! Here's what I got--
bash-3.1# python
Python 2.4.3 (#1, Jul 26 2006, 20:13:39)
[GCC 3.4.6] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more
information.

import gourmet
Segmentation fault
bash-3.1#

what next?

Uff, segfault sounds bad. It looks like it may be
segfaulting just when it initializes threading.

Can you try the following from the commandline:

$ python

import gourmet
import gourmet.GourmetFauxThreads
[type Control-D to exit]

I'm wondering if you'll get the segfault just by importing
GourmetFauxThreads
