Hi!

I'm running newspipe-1.1.9, an RSS reader (http://newspipe.sourceforge.net/), on NetBSD-5.99.11/amd64 using Python-2.6.6.

Sometimes, it core dumps with particular feeds in the configuration (I guess depending on the feed, because when I comment out the offending feed in the opml file, it runs through to completion).

The backtrace looks like this: Core was generated by `python'. Program terminated with signal 10, Bus error. #0 0x00007f7ffdc35a21 in PyOS_snprintf (str=0x7f7ff5dfe3d8 "@", size=120, format=0x1 <Address 0x1 out of bounds>) at Python/mysnprintf.c:43 43 { (gdb) bt #0 0x00007f7ffdc35a21 in PyOS_snprintf (str=0x7f7ff5dfe3d8 "@", size=120, format=0x1 <Address 0x1 out of bounds>) at Python/mysnprintf.c:43 #1 0x00007f7ffdc471a6 in PyOS_ascii_formatd (buffer=0x7f7ff5dfe3d8 "@", buf_size=120, format=0x7f7ff5dfe388 "%.2f", d=0.15256118774414062) at Python/pystrtod.c:455 #2 0x00007f7ffdbaa7fa in formatfloat (buf=0x7f7ff5dfe3d8 "@", buflen=120, flags=16, prec=2, type=102, v=0x7f7ffcc6d510) at Objects/stringobject.c:4378 #3 0x00007f7ffdbabd32 in PyString_Format (format=0x7f7ffc8144e0, args=0x7f7ffcc6d510) at Objects/stringobject.c:4943 #4 0x00007f7ffdbaa3b0 in string_mod (v=0x7f7ffc8144e0, w=0x7f7ffcc6d510) at Objects/stringobject.c:4116 #5 0x00007f7ffdb459db in binary_op1 (v=0x7f7ffc8144e0, w=0x7f7ffcc6d510, op_slot=32) at Objects/abstract.c:917 #6 0x00007f7ffdb45c81 in binary_op (v=0x7f7ffc8144e0, w=0x7f7ffcc6d510, op_slot=32, op_name=0x7f7ffdc6c089 "%") at Objects/abstract.c:969 #7 0x00007f7ffdb467ad in PyNumber_Remainder (v=0x7f7ffc8144e0, w=0x7f7ffcc6d510) at Objects/abstract.c:1221 #8 0x00007f7ffdc08a03 in PyEval_EvalFrameEx (f=0x7f7fefa1dab0, throwflag=0) at Python/ceval.c:1180 #9 0x00007f7ffdc1175f in fast_function (func=0x7f7ff8a9bed8, pp_stack=0x7f7ff5dfeae8, n=1, na=1, nk=0) at Python/ceval.c:3836 #10 0x00007f7ffdc11565 in call_function (pp_stack=0x7f7ff5dfeae8, oparg=1) at Python/ceval.c:3771 #11 0x00007f7ffdc0d81f in PyEval_EvalFrameEx (f=0x7f7fee920420, throwflag=0) at Python/ceval.c:2412 #12 0x00007f7ffdc0f715 in PyEval_EvalCodeEx (co=0x7f7ffcc247b0, globals=0x7f7ffd1c5880, locals=0x0, args=0x7f7ff5b0aac8, argcount=8, kws=0x7f7ff5b0ab08, kwcount=0, defs=0x7f7ff8d3c4e8, defcount=5, closure=0x0) at Python/ceval.c:3000 #13 0x00007f7ffdc1184a in fast_function (func=0x7f7ff8a9cc80, pp_stack=0x7f7ff5dfeff8, n=8, na=8, nk=0) at Python/ceval.c:3846 #14 0x00007f7ffdc11565 in call_function (pp_stack=0x7f7ff5dfeff8, oparg=7) at Python/ceval.c:3771 #15 0x00007f7ffdc0d81f in PyEval_EvalFrameEx (f=0x7f7ff5b0a820, throwflag=0) at Python/ceval.c:2412 #16 0x00007f7ffdc1175f in fast_function (func=0x7f7ff8a9e140, pp_stack=0x7f7ff5dff358, n=1, na=1, nk=0) at Python/ceval.c:3836 #17 0x00007f7ffdc11565 in call_function (pp_stack=0x7f7ff5dff358, oparg=0) at Python/ceval.c:3771 #18 0x00007f7ffdc0d81f in PyEval_EvalFrameEx (f=0x7f7ff5b0a420, throwflag=0) at Python/ceval.c:2412 #19 0x00007f7ffdc1175f in fast_function (func=0x7f7ffca1db90, pp_stack=0x7f7ff5dff6b8, n=1, na=1, nk=0) at Python/ceval.c:3836 #20 0x00007f7ffdc11565 in call_function (pp_stack=0x7f7ff5dff6b8, oparg=0) at Python/ceval.c:3771 #21 0x00007f7ffdc0d81f in PyEval_EvalFrameEx (f=0x7f7ff5b03190, throwflag=0) at Python/ceval.c:2412 #22 0x00007f7ffdc0f715 in PyEval_EvalCodeEx (co=0x7f7ffca0d4e0, globals=0x7f7ffca473a0, locals=0x0, args=0x7f7ff04d3e68, argcount=1, kws=0x0, kwcount=0, defs=0x0, defcount=0, closure=0x0) at Python/ceval.c:3000 #23 0x00007f7ffdb7a612 in function_call (func=0x7f7ffca1daa0, arg=0x7f7ff04d3e50, kw=0x0) at Objects/funcobject.c:524 #24 0x00007f7ffdb495e8 in PyObject_Call (func=0x7f7ffca1daa0, arg=0x7f7ff04d3e50, kw=0x0) at Objects/abstract.c:2492 #25 0x00007f7ffdb5eca0 in instancemethod_call (func=0x7f7ffca1daa0, arg=0x7f7ff04d3e50, kw=0x0) at Objects/classobject.c:2579 #26 0x00007f7ffdb495e8 in PyObject_Call (func=0x7f7ff8ac2a00, arg=0x7f7ffd112050, kw=0x0) at Objects/abstract.c:2492 #27 0x00007f7ffdc10cd3 in PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords (func=0x7f7ff8ac2a00, arg=0x7f7ffd112050, kw=0x0) at Python/ceval.c:3619 #28 0x00007f7ffdc4e69f in t_bootstrap (boot_raw=0x7f7ffd1b4590) at ./Modules/threadmodule.c:428 #29 0x00007f7ffd90ba32 in pthread_setcancelstate () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.1 #30 0x00007f7ffd26e9b0 in ___lwp_park50 () from /usr/lib/libc.so.12 #31 0x0000000000000000 in ??

It seems that the format argument is corrupted while calling PyOS_snprintf.

Any ideas what could cause this or how to fix this?

Thanks, Thomas
