[rrd-users] Segfaults in 1.3.1-4ubuntu2 and 1.4.4

[Anders Kvist]

  Hey

I just installed rrdtool on my server but it segfaults when I'm trying 
to draw a graph (works fine with update, info and such). The server runs 
Ubuntu Karmic (32bit) and I have tried both with the package 
(1.3.1-4ubuntu2) and the latest source (1.4.4). I tried the same 
commands on my workstation running Ubuntu Maverick (64bit) and here it 
work as expected...anyone got an idea? Is it me who is doing something 
wrong or is it a bug in rrdtool that have lived for many releases?

rrdtool create kwh.rrd \
DS:value:COUNTER:3600:0:1024 \
RRA:MIN:0:60:2628000 \
RRA:MAX:0:60:2628000 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0:60:2628000

rrdtool graph test.png \
     --imgformat=PNG \
     --start -1hour \
     --title="kWh" \
     \
     DEF:value="kwh.rrd":value:AVERAGE \
     LINE2:value#000000:"Value"

Here is a backtrace from the packaged version:

And here is a backtrace from 1.4.4:
