Hi, http://bugs.debian.org/420012 is currently twisting my head. http://people.debian.org/~nion/nb-bt-full-complete.txt shows that this is no bug in the newsbeuter package. I don't really understand why the encoding variable is out of bounds and didn't find out with a quick look into libmrss code. What makes me wonder is that a recompile solves the issue. The bug doesn't appear with version 2.3.6... of glibc but with the new version in unstable 2.5. If the recompile solves the issue I am curious how this is a bug in libmrss or newsbeuter since the mrss version didn't change. Is it possible that it's a bug in libc? Any help is appreciated since I don't know how to do further debugging here. To reproduce this bug install newsbeuter (with 2.3.6.ds1-13 of libc6 installed), echo "http://synflood.at/blog/index.php?/feeds/index.rss2">~/.newsbeuter/urls, start newsbeuter, press R to reload. This will work without any problem. Then update to 2.5-3 of libc6, start newsbeuter, press R and see it crashing :) Kind regards Nico P.S.
