Comment 1 Richard Hult 2006-07-04 07:07:12 UTC

Thanks! However, I can't reproduce this. It might depend on whether your regexp library supports utf8 or not. I don't think we need to keep the code that crashes though since it's a left-over from the old logging code. I will proabably just remove it after speaking to Martyn.

Comment 2 Keywan Najafi Tonekaboni 2006-07-04 07:37:11 UTC

I am not sure if this detail is important, but I use a PowerPC.

I haven't this problem with a cvs version from last week monday, but with
a cvs version from last friday. (I compile a new gossip from head of course, before I report the bug)

I also test it with gossip 0.10.2 and can't reproduce it there...

Comment 3 Richard Hult 2006-07-04 10:48:41 UTC

I removed that code, closing.
