No, but to debug segfaults of python you can install gdb and python-debuginfo and run: $ gdb --args /usr/bin/python PATH_TO_PYTHON_SCRIPT ARGS OF SCRIPT then: (gdb) run to run the python script under gdb. You can then obtain a backtrace in the usual way (run "bt" when it segfaults). Segfaults of the python interpreter normally mean one of: (a) a library embedded via a python module has segfaulted (b) a bug in the way a module embeds a library (c) overeager usage of ctypes (d) a bug in python itself (though this is much less common than the above) Hope this is helpful Dave -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
