Host: PC
Target: Any
Build: 02.2009
Summary: menuconfig segfaults on tinyx if wchar is not selected
Product: buildroot
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: P3
Component: Other
AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
ReportedBy: frankhoeflich at yahoo.com
CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
Estimated Hours: 0.0

To reproduce:

1. Get a fresh 02.2009 buildroot.
2. make menuconfig
3. Navigate to Graphic Libraries and applications
4. Navigate to X Window System server
5. Select tinyx. Boom.

My screenshot with error message from Kconfig is attached. The message is:

/bin/sh: line 4: 16472 Segmentation fault KCONFIG_AUTOCONFIG=package/config/buildroot-config/auto.conf KCONFIG_AUTOHEADER=package/config/buildroot-config/autoconf.h package/config/mconf Config.in

If you select wchar in Toolchain between steps 2 and 3, tinyx is selected normally.

--- Comment #2 from Peter Korsgaard <[email protected]> 2009-02-13 09:14:37 UTC --- It seems like Kconfig doesn't like comment entries in choice selections. The comments were added to make it clear why you can't select xorg/tinyx, but you are ofcourse not supposed to be able to select those comments.

It seems to me that the easiest fix (besides reporting upstream, the bug exists in the latest kernel as well) is to move the comments outside the choice / endchoice
