proj-imim: PanoTools seg faults Neil Bomberger 2000-Nov-04 00:16:06

Hi,

    I downloaded PanoTools 2.1 for Linux and the PanoTools plugin
v1.8.b1 for gimp.  I installed the gimp plugin PanTools in my
.gimp/plug-ins directory and started gimp, but PanTools did not appear
in my filters sub-menu.  Also, when I started gimp, I got the following
message:

    wire_read: unexpected EOF (plug-in crashed?)

When I run PanTools by typing ./PanTools from the command line, I get a
segmentation fault rather than the usual message about the program being
a gimp plug-in.

    I then checked the library dependencies of the gimp plug-in PanTools
using ldd, and got the following results:

         libgimpui.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libgimpui.so.1 (0x4000f000)
         libgimp.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libgimp.so.1 (0x40012000)
         libgtk-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgtk-1.2.so.0 (0x40021000)
         libgdk-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgdk-1.2.so.0 (0x40141000)
         libgmodule-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgmodule-1.2.so.0
(0x40175000)
         libglib-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0 (0x40178000)
         libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1 (0x4019b000)
         libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x4019e000)
         libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x401aa000)
         libm.so.5 => /usr/lib/libm.so.5 (0x4024e000)
         libc.so.5 => not found
         libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40257000)
         libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4034a000)
         libXi.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6 (0x4034d000)
         libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40355000)
         ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40371000)

Note the dependency on both libc.so.5 and libc.so.6, and both libm.so.5
and libm.so.6.   Is this supposed to be?

    Next I tried to run the Linux version of PanoTools 2.1 by typing
"java -jar ptpicker.jar".  I loaded the project in the Panorama
directory of the Linux examples, and then selected  "Optimizer" from the
"Project" menu.  The program crashes and I get the following message:

            Average Difference between Controlpoints  after 0
iteration(s): 98.491 pixels
    SIGSEGV   11*  segmentation violation
            si_signo [11]: SIGSEGV   11*  segmentation violation
            si_errno [0]: Success
            si_code [0]: SI_USER [pid: 0, uid: 0]
         stackpointer=0xbf1ff0a4

        Full thread dump Classic VM (Linux_JDK_1.2.2_FCS, native
threads):
            "Thread-0" (TID:0x40ea10e8, sys_thread_t:0x8053e40,
state:CW, native         ID:0x400) prio=5

followed by a bunch of java exception statements.  I checked the library
dependencies of some of the programs in the "Helpers" directory of
PanoTools, and got the following response:

     libpano12.so => /usr/lib/libpano12.so (0x4000f000)
     libc.so.5 => not found
     libm.so.5 => /usr/lib/libm.so.5 (0x40046000)
     libjpeg.so.6 => /usr/local/lib/libjpeg.so.6 (0x4004f000)
     libtiff.so.3 => /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3 (0x40072000)
     libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4009f000)
     ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40192000)

Again, there are dependencies on both libc.so.5 and libc.so.6.

Any clues about why both versions 5 and 6 of libc and libm are being
linked, and what may be causing the seg faults?  Is the source code
available for PanoTools so that I could compile it?
