hi,

I use grsecurity and pax in my kernel. when I want to start gpg --gen-key, I get the following message:

Code: Select all
# gpg --gen-key
gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.6; Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
(more copyright lines)

grsec: signal 11 sent to /usr/bin/gpg[gpg:8394] uid/euid:0/0 gid/egid:0/0, parent /bin/bash[bash:39483] uid/euid:0/0 gid/egid:0/0
gpg: Segmentation fault caught ... exiting
Segmentation fault


I'm not sure if this is a bug in gnupg. Does some part of the grsecurity configuration cause this problem?

regards
steffen

I found the solution. It was a bug in the glibc that was already fixed.
