RE: [xslt] xsltproc issue



Hi Bill,

Thanks to you and John for your responsiveness and your helpful suggestions.


I've already found the answer based on an entry in the buglist at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64542.  I had searched the
maillist archives but wasn't aware of the buglist at Bugzilla until John
pointed me to Daniel's bug reporting guidelines.  This appears to be an
AIX-specific issue (no big surprise there!).  We've since reconfigured and
recompiled with "--disable-shared" and my test cases are at least producing
output instead of cores.

Thanks again,
Carl J. Bauman

Hi Carl,
  We'll certainly try to help isolate the problem, but bear in mind
that we don't have access to an AIX system, so we must get as much
info from you as possible to find it.  The most helpful would be
for you to run your job under the debugger, i.e.

gdb xsltproc
set args myfile.xsl myfile.xml
r
(full backtrace when crash occurs)

and post the backtrace.

HTH
