Bug#213384: libc6 2.3.2 causes wine-based programs to segfault on startup
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2-8
After upgrading to libc6 2.3.2-5 I found that I could no longer start
CorelDRAW 9 or Crossover Plugin 1.1.3 plugin setup or loki uninstall
binary
These programs give no helpful error messages, and aren't open source,
so there isn't much I can say other than that CorelDRAW hung on its
usual startup screen, Crossover said "Child process exited abnormally"
and the loki uninstaller immediately seg faulted.
The same problem exists with libc6 2.3.2-8. The problem went away
when I downgraded to libc6 2.3.1-14
This may be related to bug #204706 (libc6: Binary incompatibility)
I am using kernel 2.4.21 on i686
Here is the strace of the loki uninstaller
