[mythtv] Repeated segfault from the main front screen (bt attached)

[Oscar Carlsson]

EW> Is anyone else noticing a segfault occuring in the front end after you
EW> have left it alone for a good few hours?  I'm noticing that in the morning
EW> if I have left it with the very top level gui showing then in the morning it
EW> allows me to select the TV menu, but then choosing "Watch TV" is causing a
EW> segfault in what appears to be the mysql library.  I'm not sure what else
EW> would cause the segfault since this is the only option I have tried so far.

EW> This has happened perhaps since I updated to the latest cvs a few days
EW> ago, and previous update was a few weeks back, before the ffmpeg resync. 
EW> This has happened to me for a long time though if I leave the active menu
EW> being the Music main menu.  If I then come back later, I think it used to
EW> segfault when you either went back to the top level main menu, or tried to
EW> play something (can't remember all the actions I tried), and the bt was
EW> similarly vague

EW> Can anyone help taking a look at the attached BT and give me an idea on
EW> where I should be looking?  My hunch is that a connection to the DB is
EW> timing out and being dropped, but the client library is not noticing?  Does
EW> anyone else experience this though?

Not   seeing  this  problem,  however,  your  backtraces..  You  aren't  getting
segfaults,  you're  getting  "broken  pipe".  According  to  section 20.9 you're
supposed to do "handle SIGPIPE nostop" in GDB.

Isn't that correct?
