             Bug #: 14677
           Summary: Mythtv-setup Segfaults
           Product: gdb
           Version: 7.3
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: madams9@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


I'm pretty sure I'm not doing this correctly. 

I upgraded my HTPC system to Mageia 2 and installed MythTV. All went well, but
MythTV will not run setup (or any other mythtv-related application for that
matter).

Trying to run it initially produces this:
$ mythtv-setup
2012-10-06 10:58:23.779603 C  mythtv-setup version: 
[0.25-20120418.3.mga2.tainted] www.mythtv.org
2012-10-06 10:58:23.779634 N  Enabled verbose msgs:  general
2012-10-06 10:58:23.779673 N  Setting Log Level to LOG_INFO
2012-10-06 10:58:23.779758 I  Added logging to the console
2012-10-06 10:58:23.779771 I  Added database logging to table logging
2012-10-06 10:58:23.779889 N  Setting up SIGHUP handler
2012-10-06 10:58:23.780178 N  Using runtime prefix = /usr
2012-10-06 10:58:23.780209 N  Using configuration directory =
/home/<user>/.mythtv
2012-10-06 10:58:23.780491 I  Assumed character encoding: en_US.UTF-8
Segmentation fault

I get the same thing running as user or root.


GDB shows me this:
gdb mythtv-setup -x gdbcommands > gdb_mythtv-setup.txt

****************************************************
 WARNING: -l has been removed as of MythTV 0.25
          This option has been removed as part of rewrite of the logging
interface. Please update your init scripts to use --syslog to interface wi
th your system's existing system logging daemon, or --logpath to specify a
dirctory for MythTV to write its logs to.
****************************************************

mythtv-setup version:  [0.25-20120418.3.mga2.tainted] www.mythtv.org

Mythtv-setup is the setup application for the backend server. It is
used to configure the backend, and manage tuner cards and storage.
Most settings will require a restart of the backend before they take
effect.


[ I DELETED THE REST OF MYTHTV-SETUP'S HELP SCREEN HERE. IT'S IRRELEVANT. ]

Just run "mythtv-setup"
Run it as a user, run it as root - makes no difference.
