GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 768591
shared-lib-calls-exit in lasem
Last modified: 2018-08-03 20:04:57 UTC
During the review of Fedora RPM package the following was found: shared-lib-calls-exit /usr/lib64/liblasem-0.4.so.4.0.3 exit@GLIBC_2.2.5 The explanation for this warning is: This library package calls exit() or _exit(), probably in a non-fork() context. Doing so from a library is strongly discouraged - when a library function calls exit(), it prevents the calling program from handling the error, reporting it to the user, closing files properly, and cleaning up any state that the program has. It is preferred for the library to return an actual error code and let the calling program decide how to handle the situation.
It's in the itex2mml code. It is in a code path I have never triggered.
