Re: [Tlf-devel] tlf & Ubuntu 9.04

[Andy Summers]

Hi,

If you look here:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tlf

You'll see that Joop Stakenborg (of cwdaemon fame) is the Ubuntu package maintainer, so it might be a good idea to contact him.

It seems to me that the recent different versioning is down to specifically Ubuntu packaging improvements. I downloaded the source for tlf-0.9.32.3-4 from the Ubuntu repository and read /doc/README. It says the version is tlf-0.9.31-2. You can also find this out via "tlf -V" at the command line.

I also read the /ChangeLog file and noticed this:

2007-12-18      rein couperus <address@hidden>

        * changed cluster_bg.c to fix possible buffer overflow

I run tlf without the Cluster. I wonder if that's the difference. You could try disabling packet by commenting out all the packet lines in your logcfg.dat file, or by starting tlf with "tlf -n" (I think, from memory. It'll be listed in "man tlf" but not in the on-line version).

Good luck!
Andy, G4KNO.

I tried the Ubuntu 9.04 tlf 0.9.32.3-4 package as well as compiling 0.9.31-1 on my Sheevaplug (ARM processor) and get a different error with both of them:

*** buffer overflow detected ***: /usr/local/bin/tlf terminated

I don't know if there might be any ARM vs. i386 issues involved.

I see that Debian also has 0.9.32.3, which is apparently the same sou rce used by Ubuntu.  The changelog indicates it is an upstream release, but I don't know where Rein has placed it.

Hi Clyde,

I took a look at that reference. I'm confused that it quotes tlf-0.9.32.3, but when I look at the source archive here http://sharon.esrac.ele.tue.nl/pub/linux/ham/tlf/ the latest is tlf-0.9.31-2?

I presume it's from the Ubuntu repository? Try compiling tlf-0.9.31-2 from source.

I'm using it (compiled) on Fedora 11 without problems.
