Details

Description: Armagetron crashes after the first few initial screens (language selection and First Setup). When I press enter at the Welcome to AA screen, the program crashes and I get the following:

$ armagetronad
Trying to start sound. Just restart Armagetron Advanced in case of crash.
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) armagetronad


I suppose this has to do with my system, but I would have liked to have it fixed somehow.

Additional info:
* package version(s) 0.2.9.1.0-4
* config and/or log files etc. - none

This task depends upon

> segmentation fault (core dumped)

For segfaults, you're supposed to provide a backtrace with debug symbols [1]. But don't worry, I can repro and have attached one for you. It appears to be SDL related. You could try downgrading "sdl12-compat" and see what happens. But you should probably report this upstream [2].

I can also repro but sad I got no idea what's wrong. I also suspect sdl12-compat to be at fault though as nothing else really changed.

This looks to be fixed upstream [1]
