KVirc :
        Version : 4.1.3-0.svn6163.1.mga2

Comment 1 Manuel Hiebel 2012-08-07 17:02:14 CEST 
could we can strace with gdb ?

1) enable the 'core release debug'
2) install the following packages: kvirc-debug
3) run the following command from a terminal:
  gdb -q kvirc 2>&1 | tee debug.txt
(** as a workaround of bug 3417 add the following line to the file ~/.gdbinit
set build-id-verbose 2 )
4) then type 'run'
(if it ask for missing packages, install them)
5) when it segfaults, type 'bt'
6) attach the file debug.txt to this bug

Source RPM: (none) => kvirc

Comment 2 Pascal Terjan 2012-08-11 02:03:29 CEST 
No need for gdb:

$ kvirc
kvirc: error while loading shared libraries: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Comment 3 Arnaud Vacquier 2012-08-11 02:04:52 CEST 
Ok sorry for time so :

1 and 2 okay


3 I do create ".gdbinit" do not exist in my home/aranud

and get : 
[root@localhost Documents]# gdb -q kvirc 2>&1 | tee debug.txt
Reading symbols from /usr/bin/kvirc...Reading symbols from /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/kvirc.debug...done.


4 for run :

(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/kvirc 
/usr/bin/kvirc: error while loading shared libraries: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[Inferior 1 (process 15905) exited with code 0177]
Missing debug package(s), you should install: glibc-debug-2.16-8.mga3.i586
(gdb)


So, i install glibc-debug
and retry run :

(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/kvirc 
/usr/bin/kvirc: error while loading shared libraries: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[Inferior 1 (process 18286) exited with code 0177]
Comment 4 Pascal Terjan 2012-08-11 02:14:28 CEST

So the same problem as in comment 2

Do you have kvirc-4.1.3-0.svn6163.2.mga3, or another version?

Thanks for the feedback, Arnaud

Closing as OLD, then, because there is not enough information.

Anyone having this issue in a fully updated version of Mageia: feel free to reopen this report when needed and give the version of Mageia and KVIRC you're using

Status: REOPENED => RESOLVED
