Description Michal Jaegermann 2000-10-13 05:15:25 UTC 
An attempt to start firewall-config ends up with:
Illegal instruction (core dumped)

As the test machine is EV67 (UP1100) then it is not very likely
that this was compiled for a wrong platform.

Oops!  Forgot to add.  Attempts to click on an entry in "System" menu
quietly do nothing and this will quite confusing for somebody new
Comment 2 Harald Hoyer 2000-10-13 08:15:45 UTC 
I think this is not a firewall-config problem. In my opinion either glibc, g++
or libqt is the source of the segmentation fault. Could you please make a
# gdb /usr/sbin/firewall-config
gdb > run
gdb > ....
gdb > bt
Comment 3 Michal Jaegermann 2000-10-13 14:36:32 UTC 
Distributed executables were stripped.  But anyway:
# gdb /usr/sbin/firewall-config

This GDB was configured as "alpha-redhat-linux"...
(no debugging symbols found)...
(gdb) r
Starting program: /usr/sbin/firewall-config 
[New Thread 1024 (LWP 11035)]
Qt: gdb: -nograb added to command-line options.
	 Use the -dograb option to enforce grabbing.
firewall-config: Fatal IO error: client killed

Program exited with code 01.
(gdb) bt
No stack.

Ok, so lets try with '-dograb', like suggested above:

(no debugging symbols found)...
(gdb) set args -dograb
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/sbin/firewall-config -dograb
[New Thread 1024 (LWP 11040)]
firewall-config: Fatal IO error: client killed

Program exited with code 01.
(gdb) bt
No stack.
(gdb) quit

I did not realized that this program was using Qt.  Over years I still
have to see a version of Qt and/or KDE which would be not riddled
with weird bugs.
