 Posted: Fri Jun 20, 2014 2:41 am Post subject: Stupid crashy skype |
 |
|
New update to stupid skype which I need for work crashes when loading with the ever-so-helpful error "Aborted".
strace gives me this at the end
| Code: | madvise(0xff8b6000, 1, MADV_WILLNEED) = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
futex(0xf2a4b990, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 2147483647) = 0
futex(0xf2a6b0f8, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 2147483647) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGABRT, {SIG_DFL, [], 0}, NULL, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [ABRT], NULL, 8) = 0
tgkill(17643, 17643, SIGABRT) = 0
--- SIGABRT {si_signo=SIGABRT, si_code=SI_TKILL, si_pid=17643, si_uid=1000} ---
+++ killed by SIGABRT +++ |
so I rename ~/.Skype , start anew and it loads up fine, works fine but my history which I would like to keep is gone now.
Not a lot I can do with this closed source microsoft spyware garbage, any advice on what to try next? |

| Why won't you just mask version you have installed right now and emerge --update it? |

easy to answer - old versions do not support group chat created in the new versions and my clients have (always) installed the new one :-(
i am not trying to solve the issue you described... |

AFAIK skype group chat is hosted by the client sending first invite. If your client does not support group chat, you can't start it, but you should still be able to take a part in it.
Yes, I noticed it seems not to be acceptable for you, but perhaps someone else could use it. |

... and if a new client starts a group chat an old client never receives notification about it... |

unfortunately i cannot confirm it works - it does not work for me :-(
| Code: |
futex(0xf2b3dea8, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 2147483647) = 0
futex(0xf2b5a0f8, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 2147483647) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGABRT, {SIG_DFL, [], 0}, NULL, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [ABRT], NULL, 8) = 0
tgkill(3968, 3968, SIGABRT) = 0
--- SIGABRT {si_signo=SIGABRT, si_code=SI_TKILL, si_pid=3968, si_uid=1000} ---
+++ killed by SIGABRT +++
