Thanks a lot for the report. I'm upgrading to serious to prevent this
release entering testing.

Subject: dialog: tailboxbg gives segmentation fault

Package: dialog
Version: 1.0-20051219-1
Severity: important

(Perhaps it was broken already in 20051207. In 20051107 it works,
though.)

tailboxbg is broken and causes a segfault. gdb gives:

  Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
  dlg_register_buttons (win=0x80c06a0, name=0x805e8bf "tailbox",
      buttons=0x0) at dlg_keys.c:108
  108 for (n = 0; buttons[n] != 0; ++n) {
  (gdb) bt
  #0 dlg_register_buttons (win=0x80c06a0, name=0x805e8bf "tailbox",
      buttons=0x0) at dlg_keys.c:108
  #1 0x080529bf in dialog_tailbox (title=0x0, file=0xbffffc2a "hej",
      height=7, width=12, bg_task=1) at tailbox.c:333
  #2 0x0804be9f in call_tailboxbg (t=0x0, av=0xbffffaa8,
      offset_add=0x0) at dialog.c:862
  #3 0x0804b3a7 in main (argc=5, argv=Variable "argv" is not available.
  ) at dialog.c:1449
  (gdb)

It seems to me that the call to dlg_register_buttons() should not be
made, as the tailboxbg has no buttons. I tried only doing this call
when bg_task==false, and got my tailboxbg (it disappeared quickly
ofcourse, no button!).

I then tried tailboxbg with and-widget, as you usually would use it,
and found out that I could not move between the tailboxbg widget and
the other widget (a checklist) with TAB, as was possible before.
Instead, TAB moved between the checklist's OK/Cancel. I suppose this is
a result of the new user-definable key bindings.

thanks (I'll take a look at this). tailboxbg has a "button", btw - the
"OK" button - and a quick check shows it broken in 20051207 as well.

no - that's a different bug that is older than 20051107 (will look into
that, but it's a normal one rather than serious).
