Bug#990998: libx11-6: new version causes segfault for fdesign



Package: libx11
Version: 2:1.7.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When I launch fdesign (from libforms-bin) and click on the menu (File, Form,
Group, Options, etc.) the program segfaults.

libforms-bin hasn't seen any version changes in a long time. The debugger and
some empirical evidence suggests it was the libx11 change from version 2:1.7.0-2
to version 2:1.7.1-1.

Here is the debugging backtrace:

$ gdb fdesign
[...]
(No debugging symbols found in fdesign)
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/fdesign

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
__strlen_avx2 () at ../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-avx2.S:65

When I downgrade libx11-6 to version 2:1.7.0-2, fdesign no longer segfaults
and works properly.

Thank you for supporting free software. It is appreciated!
