anyone willing to look at this? ----- Forwarded message from Frédéric Brière <[email protected]> ----- From: Frédéric Brière <[email protected]> To: Debian Bug Tracking System <[email protected]> Subject: Bug#557528: tin: feed_articles() segfaults on spurious SIGPIPE X-Spam-Status: No, score=-14.9 required=4.0 tests=BAYES_00,FOURLA,HAS_PACKAGE, SPF_HELO_PASS,XMAILER_REPORTBUG,X_DEBBUGS_CC autolearn=ham version=3.2.3-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02 Package: tin Version: 1:1.9.5~20090720-1 Severity: normal I'm seeing (very) infrequent segfaults when feed-saving articles. Apparently, this occurs when tin gets a SIGPIPE, probably from writing to the network socket. (I have a very flaky DSL, so it's quite possible the connection sometimes get dropped just when tin is about to write.) When that happens, pclose(pipe_fp) will segfault, since pipe_fp is NULL. ----- End forwarded message -----
