I've removed everything but localhost from /etc/hosts, and now everything seems fine. However, this "assertion failed" message is very unclear. It's very hard to find out what's actually causing it because there's not even the slightest hint of what we are actually talking about. What is src, what's the meaning of the results field, what is a1_native...? Providing just a *little* bit of context would greatly ease the debugging of this. Right now, the only option of getting *some rough* idea of what this assertion actually means is reading the code, which is obiously very time-consuming for anyone not familiar glibc internals. -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9954 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
