Bug#535581: bibtool: segmentation fault in case of error
Package: bibtool
Version: 2.48alpha.2-4
Severity: normal
I get a segmentation fault on the following example.
biblio.bib is:
@article{aglp:05,
author = {}
}
$ bibtool -q -- 'select={aglp:05 "aglp:05"}' biblio.bib
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) bibtool -q -- 'select={aglp:05 "aglp:05"}' biblio.bib
In case of syntax error, bibtool should output an error message,
not segfault.
