Let me know whether you need the sources of my project. It's GPL but I'd have to remove some binary files to keep the size of the tarball reasonable small.

Created attachment 209042 [details]
Segfaults on these files

How to reproduce:

tar xf nul.tar.gz
cd nul/build/doc
doxygen

The tree contains two slightly different copies of the same file (nul.dox). When one copy is removed, doxygen doesn't segfault.

Comment 2 Dimitri van Heesch 2012-03-08 21:13:28 UTC

The problem is that in one copy there is a section with label sec_3_1 and in the other the same label is a subsection. Of course doxygen should handle this more gracefully.

Comment 3 Christoph Deil 2012-03-28 13:33:27 UTC

I think I just ran into the same bug trying to build docs for my project.

This is on Mac OS X Lion with doxygen 1.8.0

Comment 5 Dimitri van Heesch 2012-05-19 12:26:28 UTC

This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.8.1. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information
that you think can be relevant.

Works for me.
Thanks!
