Subject: Term::Readline::Gnu causing segfault in absence of termcap
Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2009 21:43:49 +0530
To: bug-Term-ReadLine-Gnu [...] rt.cpan.org
From: wahjava [...] members.fsf.org (Ashish SHUKLA)
Hi maintainer, While trying to use Term::ReadLine::Gnu with re.pl (from Devel::REPL), I'm getting segmentation fault. I'm running Arch GNU/Linux (amd64) with perl (5.10.0), Devel::REPL (1.003007) Term::ReadLine::Gnu (1.19). AFAICS there are no /etc/termcap or /usr/share/misc/termcap files present on my box. #v+ Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Hi, I'm not quite sure why you opened bug report here. I wrote that you know the problem on your system. Any programs which use the termcap library are broken. I cannot help you. Show quoted text
