Lire 1.3 on RedHat 9

[Willman, Matt B - CNF]

Give the man a kewpie doll.

ftp xferlog lr_tag-20030616154145-11260 lr_xml2report info gonna run

ftp xferlog lr_tag-20030616154145-11260 lr_log2report err lr_xml2report

ASCII output segfaults also.

XML parser was installed from RedHat RPMS, as was expat

perl-XML-Parser-2.31-15
expat-1.95.5-2

Is there any information I can provide to make debugging easier?  Anything I
should look at or different versions of software to try?

Hmm, unfortunately, the answer is more like "don't run it on Red Hat 9".

Another user reported a segfault under Red Hat 9.0. We don't know yet if the
problem lies in the XML::Parser::Expat module, the expat library itself,
perl 5.8.0 or the libc. 

How was XML::Parser installed? From Red Hat provided RPMS ? 

The problem doesn't seem to be related to ploticus or GD. Did you try
generated ASCII reports (this should also ends in segfault for the same
report).

Kind regards
