#3 gcx 1.1 stack smashing detected
I used gcx for a quite a while on my Kubuntu 8.04 and never faced a problem. Now I freshly installed Kubuntu 9.04 and compiled gcx 1.1 which is now unusable.
Starting gcx and loading a FITS file crashes the app:
klaus@sirius:~/packages/gcx-1.1-test/gcx-1.1/src$ ./gcx -D 4

Well. Does anyone has gcx running and functioning on Kubuntu 9.04?

Solution:
Use
./configure CFLAGS="-fno-stack-protector"
for creating the makefiles. It turns the stack smashing detection off and gcx runs as it used to do on my old system. Then go on with make and make install as described in the INSTALL file.
BTW: Kubuntu 9.04 uses gcc 4.3.3
