What were you trying to do?
Run the command "/usr/sipb/rtbin/rcbook.t
/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/sipbsrc/src/lib/recipes" to generate
a PostScript copy of the alt.gourmand cookbook. The program
is a shell script, so you can look at it to find out what it
does -- it's pretty obvious. The last thing it does is calls
psroff on all the files in the recipes directory.
What's wrong:
Psroff core-dumped on me:
/usr/athena/psroff: 28017 Memory fault - core dumped
I believe that the core dump is actually from troff. I
attempted to get a stack trace by looking in the directory
/minos/source/4.3/usr.bin/troff for the unstripped troff
binary, but it isn't there. I would appreciate a mail message
telling me where it is....
What should have happened:
Psroff/troff should not core dump.
