Segmentation Fault

Hi,

After updating pacman I tried a full system update and received this error. Although it suggested I submit a bug report I wanted to ensure there was nothing I could do on my end to fix the problem.

[root@localhost neosenate]# pacman -Suy

Try run:
pacman -Syuv

-v, --verbose
Output more status messages, such as the Root and DBPath.

Better use --debug.

phrakture · 2007-05-21 06:11:34

Yes, please use --debug, as it will let me (us) see what is really happening.

Just to cover all bases, what version of libdownload are you using?

neosenate · 2007-05-21 17:48:54

I'm using libdownload-1.1-1 (I upgraded both libdownload and libarchive before updating pacman), and here is the output from the debug -

Update - It appears I can download and install single packages. I just did a

pacman -Sy cpudyn acpid

and everything downloaded and installed without incident.

....hmmmmmm

phrakture · 2007-05-21 21:12:52

Can you please add a bug report referencing this thread so we can look at it? It seems rather hard to track down, but we still might be able to.

neosenate · 2007-05-23 16:52:09

I've submitted a bug report now. Didn't include much information since it was including in this thread (and I linked to it).

Update - It seems that if I attempt to update a package, pacman will error, but if I attempt to install a new package it'll download and install ok.

phrakture · 2007-05-23 18:30:20

Does this happen all the time? Or was it only a one time thing? Is it only on -Syu ? what happens if you just do -Sy or -Su? What about if you -S more than one package?

neosenate · 2007-05-23 19:05:21

Hi,

It would appear that it doesn't happen all the time. I attempted a -Sy --debug and then a -Su --debug.

Both times they failed with the "Replace traceroute with current/iputils?" option, then the segmentation fault message was printed.

I then tried again and everything downloaded and installed fine. At the moment it seems like everything is fine and I've wasted everyones time.

I'll keep a look out and see if I can recreate the error again (being a developer errors annoy the heck out of me).

Really sorry for wasting everyones time!

Thanks for all your help.

This is starting to look like hardware trouble to me...

phrakture · 2007-05-23 19:45:20

Hmmm I don't think you wasted any time really. Some bugs like this may exist in the code, which might just happen to work fine 90% of the time, and is only actually caught by a handful of people. Do you happen to have any "odd" configuration setup?

I sincerely hope not! (Just got this damned laptop a month ago)

As far as an odd configuration, I really don't think I have anything out of the ordinary. I'm using e17 (takis) as well as gnome but apart from that, everything is pretty much standard.

The only thing that I think could have been a clue was in one of the debug outputs, the midsums failed because the packages were corrupt. I wouldn't expect this to cause a segmentation fault though. (And it only happened once so maybe it's nothing)

I'll keep an eye on it - now do I want to update the bug tracker to reflect these changes?

space-m0nkey · 2007-05-23 21:38:43

I think it might have something to do with the ftp.parrswood.manchester.sch.uk mirror, I've just tried installing xorg, gnome, gnome-extra (200+ packages), it was constantly seg faulting after downloading 4-5 packages. I've just changed the mirror I'm using and it's downloaded 182 packages without a seg fault.

libdownload is chocking on something ftp.parrswood.manchester.sch.uk is sending.

phrakture · 2007-05-23 22:27:39

Nice, if you could, running pacman with --debug=2 will enable debug output for libdownload... perhaps it'd help see why it's barfing.

space-m0nkey · 2007-05-23 22:59:25

I've posted the debug log at http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7247

But I can't see anything wrong with the request/responses from ftp.parrswood.manchester.sch.uk

phrakture · 2007-05-24 01:55:16

Well it's one of the only http servers, that's my first guess... something with http...

atordo · 2007-05-24 13:48:20

I also had a segfault installing antiword from the same mirror, see bugtrack for details.
