Description Pavel Nemec 2005-08-29 09:39:42 UTC

when i use pstoedit
$ pstoedit -f emf test.ps test.emf
i will get
$pstoedit: version 3.40 / DLL interface 108 (build Aug 23 2005 - release build)
: Copyright (C) 1993 - 2005 Wolfgang Glunz
$ Neoprávněný přístup do paměti (SIGSEGV)
 (unauthorised memory access)
Though i am not sure if this is bug, becasue in pdb :
ewm: Enhanced Windows Meta Files (EMF) (Windows 9x/NT only)

thanks for the report; I'm able to reproduce it.  It's only uli who thinks
segfaults are accetable ;)
Phillip, can you please tell how to proceed?  Reporting the bug upstream?
I'll attach a test file.

Comment 3 Philipp Thomas 2005-08-30 12:06:14 UTC

I'll have a look at both pstoedit and libEMF and see if I can determine what is
going wrong.

Comment 4 Philipp Thomas 2005-08-31 14:51:57 UTC

OK, I traced it to an error somewhere when creating a backend, but it would be
too time consuming to track this further.

I just tested with pstoedit 1.41 and I couldn't trigger the SIGSEGV anymore. It
could of cause be a latent bug only hidden in the new release, but I'd vote for
a version update given that aj gives his OK.
