[mdb-dev] Seg fault and CVS problems

[KEVIN Z. <KZE...@jh...>]

I'm trying to get my first installation of MDB tools working. I'm also not =
familiar with CVS, so I couldn't get this command to work:
www:~# cvs -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/mdbto=
ols login
Logging in to :pserver:ano...@cv...:2401/cvsroot/=
mdbtools
CVS password:=20
cvs login: authorization failed: server cvs.mdbtools.sourceforge.net =
rejected access to /cvsroot/mdbtools for user anonymous
www:~# cvs -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/mdbto=
ols login
Logging in to :pserver:ano...@cv...:2401/cvsroot/=
mdbtools
CVS password:=20
cvs [login aborted]: recv() from server cvs.mdbtools.sourceforge.net: =
Connection reset by peer
www:~#=20

I tried putting in 'anonymous' and my email address in response to the =
password prompt, but neither was accepted.

Then, I got the 0.5rc2 tarball and did the dance: tar zxvf mdbtools-0.5rc2.=
tar.gz; cd mdbtools-0.5rc2/; ./configure --enable-sql; make; su -; make =
install. All seemed to go well, except for some complaints about missing =
libglade and libgnomeui, which didn't stop the build. mdbtools seems to be =
working, except for a Segmentation fault when the '-H' (omit the header =
row) is used:

kevinz@www:~/budgetdb$ mdb-export -H budgettables.mdb BCODE
Segmentation fault
kevinz@www:~/budgetdb$=20

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this problem? I tried to search the =
archives on "Segmentation" but the SourceForge archive server must be done =
right now; I couldn't get a response.

Here's some information on my system:
kevinz@www:~/budgetdb$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/ostype=20
Linux
kevinz@www:~/budgetdb$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/osrelease=20
2.4.18-686-smp

Thank you all for your help and suggestions.
