Hello, in Debian we have the bug[1]. If dispwin is started with "dispwin -d" it runs into a segfault. The output of gdb is #### (gdb) file dispwin Reading symbols from dispwin...Reading symbols from /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/0c/5af1737443a64c21ca2a3eca93df00da9a623c.debug...done. done. (gdb) run -d Starting program: /usr/bin/dispwin -d [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1". Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x000000000040595d in main (argc=2, argv=0x7fffffffdf18) at spectro/dispwin.c:5496 5496 if (strncmp(na,"web",3) == 0 (gdb) #### na is NULL at this point. I have added the line if(na == NULL) usage("-d parameter missing"); before. The patch file is attached.
