I have both failing file and core dump, if it is required. It seems like the problem is in vfs_split (inname, &local, &op); in function extfs_get_path_mangle.
This problem occurred with MC 4.7.0 from Debian Testing.

Kind regards,
Moritz

Change History

comment:1 Changed 14 years ago by antiguru

  • Version changed from version not selected to 4.7.0

comment:2 Changed 14 years ago by andrew_b

deb support is broken.

  • Cc narcan, winnie, zaytsev added

Yes, need to review DEB package. Yury Zaytsev reported about broken directory highlight into mc. May be, this is have same root of trouble...

comment:4 follow-up: ↓ 5 Changed 14 years ago by zaytsev

Actually it works very well for me on mc 4.7.0.1 (current package trunk in Debian). I can not test on 4.7.0, but anyway I don't believe that it's a packaging bug.

The issue with file highlighting was due to an unpackaged file / was fairly trivial to fix and has nothing to do with extfs.

The questions that OP should answer is

1) Whether he is able to reproduce it on latest master;
2) Whether it consistently happens on all debs or just some of them.

comment:5 in reply to: ↑ 4 Changed 14 years ago by antiguru

I also use mc 4.7.0-1. Opening all other deb files works well. It is only one specific file, probably the file is broken. Still, I think, mc should not crash if a broken deb file is being opened.

Contact me if you require the file for testing purposes.

I tried to compile mc from GIT, bit it takes too much time right now to test if the problem still occurs.

comment:6 Changed 14 years ago by zaytsev

Can you post a link to this mysterious deb?

comment:7 Changed 14 years ago by antiguru

Send me your email to antiguru at gmail dot com. I can't put it here.

comment:8 Changed 14 years ago by zaytsev

Done.

comment:9 Changed 14 years ago by zaytsev

Very funny! I could reproduce this on 4.7.0.1. If I directly go into the archive and then browse the deb it works, but shows a broken link, otherwise it crashes. We will look into this.

comment:10 Changed 14 years ago by zaytsev

Works for me on 4.7.0.1-48-g86251db (stable branch). I guess it's because we reverted the split_url patch that were causing more problems than it solved.
