pyglet segfaults on FreeBSD 8.0/amd64/nVidia

[Giuseppe Pagnoni]

Dear all,

thanks for your help, I have re-built python and pyglet and run gdb on
the core file that gets produced by running the pyglet code.  I am not
sure about the procedure, so I will detail it in the following:

cd /usr/ports/lang/python26
make deinstall clean
make WITH_DEBUG="yes" reinstall

cd /usr/ports/graphics/py-pyglet
make deinstall clean
make WITH_DEBUG="yes" reinstall

python foobar2.py


(the file foobar2.py contains just the following lines:
  import pyglet
  luxi = pyglet.font.load('Luxi Sans', 14)


=> I get a segmentation fault and a python.core file.

When I run:

  gdb core python.core

I get:

GNU gdb 6.1.1 [FreeBSD]
Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

This GDB was configured as "amd64-marcel-freebsd"...core: No such file
or directory.

Core was generated by `python'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
#0  0x0000000807a3d901 in ?? ()


It doesn't seem very informative to me but I don't know how to use gdb
at all; perhaps the debug symbols were stripped on install?

By the way, I will repost here the content of my /etc/make.conf file
for clarity:

# added by use.perl 2010-03-23 15:25:42
PERL_VERSION=5.10.1
# Give preference to CUPS
WITH_CUPS=YES
CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE=YES
WITHOUT_LPR=YES


thanks again

very best

  giuseppe
