busybox-1.9.0 / fdisk -l segfaults

[Christian MICHON]

Thanks for this report on another glibc.

Has anyone tried with uclibc 0.9.29 ?

I understand apparently the bug does not hit glibc based busybox ( a
shame since normally busybox compilation with glibc usually complains
about many incoherence inside glibc...)

I'll look more at some debug reports later this weekend.

For the adventurous, here's my minibbconfig:

#make allnoconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=minibbconfig
CONFIG_HAVE_DOT_CONFIG=y
CONFIG_BUSYBOX_EXEC_PATH="/proc/self/exe"
CONFIG_STATIC=y
CONFIG_INSTALL_APPLET_SYMLINKS=y
CONFIG_PASSWORD_MINLEN=6
CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_HISTORY=
CONFIG_FDISK=y
CONFIG_FDISK_SUPPORT_LARGE_DISKS=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_FDISK_WRITABLE=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_AIX_LABEL=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_SGI_LABEL=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_SUN_LABEL=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_OSF_LABEL=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_FDISK_ADVANCED=y
CONFIG_IFUPDOWN_IFSTATE_PATH=""
