Hi all,
for a while now I have been compiling Inkscape with empty CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS, which greatly speeds up the build. Since last week, however, Inkscape consistently crashes for me during startup. I first thought this was caused by one of the recent SVN commits, but bisecting the history I was unable to identify any malicious commit because a single revision sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. It's still strange that the problem only seems to occur with revisions that are not older than one or two weeks.
I have a separate SVN checkout on my hard drive which uses unchanged CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS (which I use when I need full debugging information). This one works without problems.
Has anyone else seen similar crashes in the past, perhaps related to modified CFLAGS? I'd be very glad if someone could point me to a solution because development is severely slowed down with the increased compile times, and I've already spent several days just trying to recompile Inksacpe and finding that the crash is still there.
Many thanks in advance, Max
P.S.: Of course I tried 'make clean' but that didn't help. :(( Backtraces are worthless, too, since they read like this:
#0 0xb74db9d7 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0 #1 0x00000000 in ?? ()
(as I said, debugging symbols are stripped off in these builds)
