Description Marlon Nelson 2008-03-09 20:30:46 UTC 
running gentoo on a Zonbu laptop
gnumeric 1.8.1
goffice 0.6.1
xfce 4.4.2
sshfs 1.9

see attached terminal output

i'll probably end up reporting this to the sshfs people but i thought i'd try here, first, since the text editor doesn't seem to have any problem doing something similar

i've used sshfs to mount my home directory from my ubuntu 7.10 desktop machine onto my zonbu laptop running gentoo

i can create and save a new spreadsheet on the sshfs

if i try to save it again, or save as an existing file name, i sometimes get the crash shown in the attachment

sometimes i just get the "Operation not permitted" message in a dialog box and in the terminal output

You are seeing the effects of memory corruption.  Please try running
under valgrind using something like...

G_SLICE=always-malloc valgrind --num-callers=20 /path/to/gnumeric

valgrind output

output from: G_SLICE=always-malloc valgrind --num-callers=20 `which gnumeric` 2>&1 | tee ~/gnumeric.dbg.out

so far, i'm unable to reproduce the crash when using valgrind.  i can only reproduce the "Operation not permitted" error, which is shown in the attachment.

when running gnumeric normally, the crash only happens intermittently.
