Seed executable crashes on big-endian machines
Last modified: 2021-05-25 17:32:20 UTC
Hi, seed is crashing on big-endian machines. This is a backtrace when calling the seed executable without any arguments on a powerpc machine:
+ Trace 233000
I've not got a powerpc to test on, and not got to much experience in this either, so unless a patch is available, it's not likely to be fixed Regards Alan
I'll try to get some better backtrace. Note that seed FTBFS on 5 architecture in Debian ATM https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=seed
They are probably the same error - seed run's it'self to create documentation, hence if there is a segfault running seed, the build will fail.
Created attachment 272854 [details] full backtrace
See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1074093 It looks like at least partly a webkitgtk bug.
See https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128743 for the JSC bug.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new enhancement request ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/seed/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
