bash coredumping?
Hi,
Today, I noticed that woody is missing some packages or has some
package versions older than potato, so I added lines for frozen (in
addition to the ones for unstable) in my sources.list, ran update and
dist-upgrade.
But, bash (!) is now coredumping in some cases. For instance, teh cvs
postinst, which is all shellscripts. If I run
/var/lib/dpkg/info/cvs.postinst configure, it crashes with coredump.
If I run bash -c /var/lib/dpkg/info/cvs.postinst configure, it works.
I am puzzled. Also tex is demonstrating some of the same problems.
Ideas anyone? Here are the messages.
