From: Philippe Latulippe Date: 2010-02-14T04:22:06+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:28168] [Bug #2667] Segmentation fault error Issue #2667 has been updated by Philippe Latulippe. I'm getting something very similar. I compiled ruby-1.9-p376 with --prefix=/usr and after a day it would immediately crash when run. After recompiling, everything was fine for another day, then that crash again: $ ruby : compile/should not be reached: compile.c:473 ruby:32: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.9.1p376 (2009-12-07 revision 26041) [i686-linux] -- control frame ---------- c:0002 p:-40997560 s:0004 b:0004 l:000003 d:000003 TOP ruby:32 c:0001 p:0000 s:0002 b:0002 l:000dd4 d:000dd4 TOP --------------------------- -- Ruby level backtrace information----------------------------------------- -- C level backtrace information ------------------------------------------- 0x811d378 ruby(rb_vm_bugreport+0x48) [0x811d378] [NOTE] You may encounter a bug of Ruby interpreter.
