Summary0010799: Game seg faults and crash to desktop without opening
DescriptionGame stopped working after updating the kernel to 4.17.2-1 and the game to 44.11. Worked fine with previous kernel version and 44.10.

Nothing happens when you try to run the game. Running it in the console shows it crashing and dumping it's core.

[1] 1326 segmentation fault (core dumped) dwarffortress

 Have you tried installing 0.40.10 again (in a different location) to see if that still works? If that version also crashes it's likely your core upgrade that's causing the trouble, otherwise it ought to be DF changing.

You may also try to disable music, as it seems that's where it crashes, to see what happens with 0.44.11.

 Disabling sound didn't change anything for me, although a manually installed 44.10 failed to launch with a pair of missing library errors:

./libs/Dwarf_Fortress: /home/zach/odf/df_linux/libs/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.8' not found (required by /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1)
./libs/Dwarf_Fortress: /home/zach/odf/df_linux/libs/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.9' not found (required by /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1)

I'm ashamed to say I don't know enough about the C++ linker and how it interplays with DF and Arch to determine if this is congruent with PatrikLundell's theory- or just a sign that my Arch environment is irretrievably horrible.

 Turning music off did nothing.
Messed around with the config files, no changes fixed the problem.

DF 44.10 worked fine with the new kernel, though.

 You set SOUND to NO in data/init/init.txt, right?
What happens if you remove libs/libstdc++.so.6? What if you remove the audio files in data/sound?

 Are you using DF from pacman? According to Einveru on Freenode, copying libs/libgraphics.so from the version on http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/ [^] into the libs folder in pacman's copy fixes this.

 Yes, it's the Pacman version, and copying the libgraphics.so file from the website download over the pacman one solved the problem.

Removing either the libstdc++.so.6 and data/sound files didn't solve the problem, the game complained about the missing files instead.

The issue seems to be specific with the pacman package and not with the game itself.

Thank you for your time and support.

 Weird, removing libstdc++ should cause DF to use your system one instead, which usually works (if it's from GCC 4.8 or later, anyway). Sometimes that's necessary to avoid CXXABI errors, but I've never seen it segfault due to a libstdc++ mismatch (on Linux). Removing sound files was a far-fetched suggestion on my part, though.

In general, it's a good idea to specify when you're using a package that isn't directly from Bay12. I suspect your package maintainer didn't update libgraphics.so properly. However, the only changes (edit: to libgraphics) in 0.44.11 were additional keybindings, and usually a keybinding mismatch doesn't cause DF to crash, so I'm not sure if that's the issue or if something else is wrong with the package. Either way, this is definitely something the package maintainer should know about.

Thanks for reporting back!

 toasttown: I'm unsure if you're using the pacman one or not. If not, feel free to open a new issue.
