Segmentation fault with turing gem on 64bit gentoo

Michael Moody

I'm sorry if this is not the appropriate place to post this:

I am running 64bit gentoo with the truetype use flag used to build gd,
with the turing and gd2 gems installed on kernel
2.6.18, with ruby 1.8.4-r3.
When attempting to use turing from irb the following happens:

Output is posted below:

eric@mongrel2 /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/turing-0.0.9/lib $ irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'turing'
=> true

Segmentation fault

Thanks,
Michael

Was this issue ever resolved? I'm getting the same error 1 year later on
my Arch 64 VPS.

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/gd2-1.1.1/lib/gd2/font.rb:234: [BUG]

I've had quite a few people ask over the last year(apparently, this gets
high results on google). Yes we did solved it (for a while, I didn't
remember how). The solution was a patch. Although we originally patched
the software ourselves, someone else has also done so.

The patch did the trick! Thanks so much for the quick response.
