gdb backtrace

Hi dear PySide developers, 

now that a Qt >= 4.7. reached Debian unstable, I pushed the whole PySide stack
to Debian unstable, where it slowly gets built on many different architectures.

The "alpha" build has some tests failing with severe errors (Illegal
instruction or Segmentation fault"):

https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=pyside&arch=alpha&ver=1.0.0-2&stamp=1299951933&file=log&as=raw

Amongst those failures, this bug report is about the first failure:
QtGui_bug400 .

Comment 1 Didier Raboud 2011-03-14 16:50:19 EET

… I was too fast in clicking "submit". So I attached you a gdb backtrace
produced this way on a Debian porter machine:

$ cd pyside/tests
$ PYTHONPATH=util/ xvfb-run -a -s -noreset gdb python-dbg
(gdb) # setup logging
(gdb) run QtGui/bug_400.py
… SIGILL.

Please ask if you need more information from me.

Comment 2 Hugo Parente Lima 2011-03-15 16:50:54 EET

Prioritizing as P4, Alpha isn't really our target platform and we don't have a
alpha machine to test, anyway the history show us that many times bugs in other
platforms are hidden bugs on our usual platforms.

Comment 3 renato filho 2011-03-22 16:41:23 EET

will be nice if you run the tests in verbose mode.

Comment 4 Didier Raboud 2011-03-22 17:19:35 EET

What do you need ? A run of python-dbg -v QtGui/bug_400.py ?

Comment 5 Didier Raboud 2011-03-28 12:53:39 EEST

According to
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2011/03/msg00015.html, the
"alpha" port will be phased out of Debian.

"Further on it was decided that the alpha port will be completely removed from
Debian"

Hence resolution of this bug isn't important for Debian anymore. As Hugo
mentionned, such bugs are indicators of hidden flaws though...
