Raze crashes on manjaro

anon86044284 · 27 April 2021 07:54

i like to play retro games from time to time, and I’ve installed raze, a source port for running build engine games, from the AUR, the package is raze-git.
Recently i encountered a crash while playing a specific situation. As the devs explained me, upon crash the program should create a crash log in the current directory but it doesn’t. I installed gxmessage and gdb, but to no avail. The program just creates a core dump, which i was told is useless on other platforms.
I installed lldb and managed to found the reason of the crash. Here is the output:

Process 15684 stopped

The crash doesn’t replicate on Windows, so i think it’s a Manjaro issue. The devs said that since they cannot replicate it, they cannot fix anything.
I know this surely is a niche topic, but i’m asking just for curiosity, to understand the cause of the crash.

Welcome to Manjaro!

It does and you gave it to us.

The devs might not know that Manjaro is an Arch-derivative and that we’re running the latest and greatest kernels / device drivers / … and that the problem you’re encountering will be encountered by more users in the future as the kernel updates dribble down to other Linux versions.

So when filing a bug, always:

include the output of:

neofetch
inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width

The exact steps to reproduce the problem (on your system)
The application crash report you’ve already provided to us.

Maybe (very small maybe) we can do something if you provide the above output to us…

Thanks for your reply!

Actually, i got that crash report from manually running lldb… the program crashes and just says:
failed to run debug; segmentation fault; coredump created.
I posted it, but probably the want a crash report of a specific type.

I did run the command and obtained a report, but when i try to post it got rejected. It says i can’t include links.

As for the steps to reproduce, it’s not easy to explain… i play one map, then at a certain point the program freezes for some seconds… then crashes. On windows it doesn’t.
I’m not a programmer, but i think that maybe is something related to glibc.

Please read this:

Yeah, they want what you posted here:

Don’t! Let the devs figure it out!

Actually, you don’t need to do anything here any more as we’ve explained what to provide to the devs so they can figure it out!

anon86044284 · 27 April 2021 16:37

Nothing to do, i can’t post it. Sorry, this is too complicated for me.

anon86044284 · 27 April 2021 17:01

The fact is that there isn’t a link on the output! Why does it keeps rejecting the post??

anon86044284 · 27 April 2021 17:29

So it was that X.org the cause

Fabby · 27 April 2021 17:53

And why I didn’t understand what you were talking about…

You need to put 3 backticks ``` before and after stuff like that as the discobot tutorial taught you… (or not…)

That looks good! So now you have to

file the crash dump
the inxi
a save file of where you crash

with the developers of the application, instead of here, because they will be able to make sense of it.

anon86044284 · 27 April 2021 18:24

Ah, ok… the fact is that the devs are on windows, and that’s why i’m asking for some tips here…
Nevermind, thank you for your time

Fabby · 27 April 2021 18:51

I’m giving you tips on how to file a bug…

What was the exact command / method you used to install this if the devs are not aware of a Linux build???

anon86044284 · 27 April 2021 18:53

I installed it from aur:
yay -syu raze-git
It’s not the they are not aware, just that they don’t provide linux build, you have to compile yourself…

Fabby · 27 April 2021 19:10

The AUR package maintainer is also the github developer, so create an issue here…

anon86044284 · 27 April 2021 19:17

Erm… no, they aren’t the same person… and i already opened an issue in the official forum…
Nevermind, i was just asking out of curiosity

anon86044284 · 8 May 2021 07:52

Just for update, this is how the thing ended, after i’ve reported several different crashes :

“I already said that this does not happen on Windows. I cannot reproduce it in an environment where I can investigate it.”
