Re: [Bug-gnubg] Segfault in help function?

[Achim Mueller]

1) This is what I get with the devel version on a SuSE-10.1:

(gdb) run -t
Starting program: /home/ace/local/src/gnubg-devel/gnubg -t

The stable version _works_ on a SuSE-10.1

2) This is what I get at SuSE-10.2 with the stable version:

On a SuSE-10.2 the _devel_ version works. Funny

Ciao
