I'm on Archlinux 32bit and there it works fine. Am 06.01.2011 um 22:19 schrieb scott@xxxxxxxxxx: > Funny, I tried to change my system to Archlinux last weekend and had the same problem. I gave up in the end and will try Opensuse 11.3 now. I also tried recompiling glibc from source but it gave the same error. Would be to have a test suite for pthread. Could be a 64bit problem... if I was going to pursue it I would create a test program that made the same call as vdr to submit to the Archlinux guys. > > Sent from my HTC > > ----- Reply message ----- > From: "David Spicer" <azleifel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: Thu, Jan 6, 2011 20:53 > Subject: vdr segfaults with glibc 2.12.2 > To: <vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx> > > Hi, > > I'm not a programmer and I'm not sure where to go with this but I > thought that I'd try here first.
