I just discovered that d.zoom gives me an unexpected crash "ERROR
unexpected EOF from graphics driver"For some odd reason, the _get (buf, n) function in src/libes/raster/io.c
causes this error in my Alphastation because read(2) returns zero read
characters in a response to _send_ident (RESPOND). It should return at
least one char, shouldn't it?It is D_popup in popup.c that makes a call to R_flush, which calls
R_stabilize, which then can't read the response and crashes.Any idea where this bug hides?
To continue on this topic, I just found out that d.profile also exits with
the same error message. As I said earlier, grass was compiled using the
axptrick 64-bit port from Berkeley.
My lack of knowledge of the design of grass (and C programs to some degree)
makes my efforts to locate this bug very unsatisfactory, so I would still
appreciate assistance on this.
Best,
Rainer Bars
