Bug#425457: emacs-snapshot: conflicts with glibc 2.6, malloc problems at startup
Package: emacs-snapshot
Version: 1:20070302-1
Severity: normal
Emacs went broken when I installed glibc 2.6 from experimental.
emacs: malloc.c:2860: do_check_malloc_state: Assertion `p->fd_nextsize == ((void *)0) && p->bk_nextsize == ((void
*)0)' failed.
The same problem seems to exist in the emacs21 package.
FYI: I compiled my own emacs which worked fine, except when I downgraded to glibc 2.5. Then I got:
*** glibc detected *** emacs: double free or corruption (!prev): 0x0000000000e39640 ***
