[Refdb-users] refdbib segfault

[Markus H. <mar...@mh...>]

Hi,

what version are you working with? I know that the last release 0.9.2a
does have a couple of problems related to citation keys. Most of these
issues have been fixed in CVS and I'd like to know whether this also
holds true for the problem you stumbled in. Could you please provide
everything necessary to reproduce the problem by private mail, i.e. a
zip of the subdirectory containing your Makefile, cepprop.xml, the err
files etc, plus the RIS file containing your references.

BTW why do you assume that refdbib segfaults? Do you get a core file?
I gather from the information that you provided that refdbd bails out
after an error which causes refdbib to call it quits.

regards,
Markus
