Re: [Kolab-devel] Kolab on Ubuntu 16.04: swig with support for PHP7

Hi again Timotheus,

I tried to run `php --version` and I'm seeing the same error (zend_mm_heap
corrupted). However, in my case, it does not cause PHP to segfault, and all
applications build and run nicely. I tried running valgrind, as suggested
in the swig ticket and I am seeing some errors when loading the kolabformat
extension that are not there without it, so there is definitely something
going on here.

If I had to guess, maybe PHP for Fedora is built with some flags that make
it crash when encountering a corrupt heap, while in Arch it tries to
continue. But anyway, something is wrong on the swig/libkolabxml side, so
I'll try to look at the valgrind errors if I get the time.


Best,
Javier
