Hi.. this minimal program segfaults when you click 'exit'. #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Tk; my $mw = new MainWindow; my $entry=$mw->Entry(-text => '', -width => 140)->pack; my $text=$mw->Text()->pack; my $button=$mw->Button(-text => 'Exit',-command => \&exit)->pack; MainLoop; -- PF <kernel@pkts.ca>

I cannot reproduce the segfault with FreeBSD 6.2 + Tk 804.027_050 and Tk 804.027 and with Debian + Tk 804.027, all with perl 5.8.8. Can you try the development version of Tk (available at http://search.cpan.org/~srezic/Tk-804.027_500/ ) and see if it fixes the problem? As a workaround, does it work if you use sub { $mw->destroy } instead of the exit? Regards, Slaven

Closing because there was no response, and also only old versions of perl and Tk and fedora were affected.
