[Bug 995941] Re: mythtv-setup.real assert failure: *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/mythtv-setup.real: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0000000001768480 ***

 

We really do appreciate you opening this ticket to help improve
Mythbuntu, but it needs to be closed for a number of reasons. The
biggest one is that upstream has moved on to a new version and believes
this to be fixed. Could you please verify if this issue still exists in
the latest version?

Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a
new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer
versions.

Title:
  mythtv-setup.real assert failure: *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin
  /mythtv-setup.real: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0000000001768480
  ***

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Attempting to run mythtv-setup -O ThemePainter=qt over an ssh -X
  connection causes myhtv-setup.real to crash with a memory corruption
  error.

  The problem also occurs if I don't specify the Theme Painter manually
  (Michael T. Dean suggested that I do so).

  Mythtv-setup works fine when I go over to the machine and run it
  there.
