[GRASS-dev] issue with vector import wrapper for v.in.ogr for GRASS 7

I received a report that the wrapper for v.in.ogr is throwing an error when importing files of multiple types (kml and shp tested). The error in the terminal is:

pythonw2.6(5979,0xad1e72c0) malloc: *** error for object 0x6d353ed5: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

v.in.ogr works fine for the same files. So it is the wrapper.

This is happening in GRASS 7 r57457, compiled 16 August. That’s a couple weeks back, so it may be fixed. If not, I can do a ticket.

this is a strange error, does this happen on certain platforms only? And when exactly does this error appear, when you press Import?

I just did a test and the wrapper for r.in.gdal and wrapper for v.in.ogr crash the GUI when I click the “browse” button.
