Hi Will and all,
I found a reproducible crash (SIGSEGV) today, based on current Yoshimi (git
commit 22beca9b4).
[..]
Can anyone reproduce this? Or, would you have suggestion how I should further
instrument the code to find out more?
Thanks,
Frank
I never expected anyone to have so many files in a directory!
FilerLine size shares MIDI_LEARN_BLOCK which is currently set to 400.
As a test, try temporarily changing all occurrences of this in
src/UI/MasterUI.fl to something like 600.
Originally I tried to make this variable size, but kept hitting obscure
problems. I guess I'll have to give that another try :(
Yep, confirmed - that fixes it. Thanks! :-)
Yeah, hard-coded "guessed maximum" values are dangerous - as in "640kB is
enough for anyone".
In my case, that large number of entries in /usr/share/ comes from my default
setup operation of installing some 2000+ packages on my machine for all kinds
of -dev packages and their dependencies.
I want to be able to build a lot of sw from source myself, so this machine is
currently listing some 3680 packages installed..that's "normal" for me.
Greetings,
Frank
