Bug#649431: asterisk: Segmentation fault in asterisk -r

[Vincent Smeets]

Package: asterisk
Version: 1:1.8.7.1~dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I just installed asterisk and made no changes to any configuration files
so they are still in there original state.

Whenever I start the command:
# asterisk -r
I get a segmentation violation and can"t connect to the deamon. The
attachement show a gdb session with a backtrace of the error.

Yesterday I also installed the asterisk package (probably version
1:1.8.4.4~dfsg-2) and had no problems. I then uninstalled and purged
everything yesterday and today I installed it again. So I think the
problem has something to do with the new version 1:1.8.7.1~dfsg-1.

Regards,
V. Smeets
