I have been trying to get dssi up and running on
my machine this
afternoon and I have run into a snag. It appears to compile correctly
(both CVS and tarballs). But whenever I try to do the tests I get a
segfault. I know its some user error, but its difficult to track down
with only a segfault.
Is there a common mistake I am doing?
Segfaults are (almost) never due to user errors. Unless you did
something truely wierd or forced an install its the developers fault :)
It could be that your system networking config is a bit odd. Verisons of
liblo < 0.16, which the DSSI test code depends on, segfaulted under some
condititons.
Unfortunatly I cant remember the fix, but hopefully someone here can...
IIRC, make sure that the name reported by hostname(1) is in the
/etc/hosts file. Otherwise liblo would segfault when trying to launch a
new server.
