[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#589662: dbus: segfaults on kfreebsd if reloaded

[Axel Beckert]

Package: dbus
Version: 1.2.24-1
Severity: important
User: debian-bsd at lists.debian.org
Usertags: kfreebsd

A running dbus-daemon segfaults on kfreebsd-i386, if "service dbus
reload" is issued. Since the hal maintainer scripts issue this command
on upgrade or installation, hal currently fails to install or upgrade on
kfreebsd because of that.

Happens with both, the current version in testing (1.2.24-1) as well as
the version in unstable (1.2.24-2), so I'm reporting this as found in
1.2.24-1.

If someone can instruct me how to force dbus-daemon to dump core, I can
also provide a backtrace. I found a core at /dbus-daemon.core, but it
was 2 days old and from before I installed the dbus-1-dbg package. The
reproducable segfault doesn't seem to dump core anymore, at least not in
"/" which seems the cwd of dbus-daemon.
