Since the latest stable update (13/6/22), even after rebuilding & reinstalling, xfig
crashes when I try to include a PDF file as an image. (The same thing happened a couple of updates ago, but on that occasion a rebuild & reinstall fixed the problem.)
To trigger:
- enter
xfig
. - Select “Picture”
- Mark the area of the picture.
- Select a PDF file to include.
-
xfig
crashes with the error:
free(): double free detected in tcache 2
Aborted (core dumped)
The problem does not occur with encapsulated postscript or PNG files.
Extra comment: xfig-git
does appear to work correctly (sometimes).
