OK, thanks.
I do not know why when I have done several "cvs update"s
gretl
begins to work badly. Now I uninstalled gretl completely and
downloaded it enterely from the cvs and gretl is not producing
the segmentation fault.
Maybe you're doing this already, but When building gretl from CVS
I'd recommend the following routine:
cvs update -P -d
CFLAGS='-g -O2 -Wall -W -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-sign-compare' \
./configure <options>
make clean
make 2>errors
[ inspect the "errors" file ]
[ sudo ] make install
In the cvs command, -P removes local copies of files that have
been deleted in CVS, and -d ensures that if a new directory has
been added, you get a copy of that.
The CFLAGS setting on the configure line sets warnings to the max
("-Wall -W"), other than a couple of things which will produce
very verbose and not very useful output (i.e. "-Wno-foo"
suppresses warnings with regard to foo in particular).
The "make clean" step is not generally required, but I tend to do
this if I see any odd behavior from gretl.
Allin.
