vdr-sxfe segmentation fault on key press

Bug Description

Binary package hint: vdr-plugin-xineliboutput

Using vdr-sxfe on 8.04 causes a segmentation fault whenever one presses any key other than ESC. I have reproduced this on five different machines. Some were newly installed Ubuntu 8.04 some were upgraded from 7.x.

This seems not to be related to bug 197400.

Can someone help?

Is there anything I can do to have some body look after that? This bug prevents a lot of machine upgrades here at my end for me and friends. Unfortunately, I cannot fix the bug myself and I would really appreciate if somebody could look into that?

Sorry for the late reply, but could you try building the version in Intrepid? This might be a duplicate of bug 197400.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

i have switched to another repository for these packages and I am sorry,
but I can't test with the Ubuntu packages any longer.

Best regards,

Robert

Recompiling the version from intrepid, vdr-plugin-xineliboutput_1.0.1-5.dsc, makes it work on Hardy for me (resolving the problem with crashing on the first keypress).
However I needed to use dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -d to override the dependencies on vdr-dev (>= 1.6.0-5) and libxine-dev (>= 1.1.12).
