Hi Ralph

Thank you for your very prompt reply.

I visited
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Step-by-step_debugging_guide#Segmentation_faults

and read about rdb and then ran the command. Here is the result of my
attempt to do something correctly!

which means nothing whatsoever to me - way beyond my paygrade!

Neither did I understand the instructions which followed "Improved gdb
output" on the website, so seek your further assistance, please?

I have three allegro packages installed:
libjpgallwegro4.4 v2.2.2.2-10
liballegro4-dev v2.4.4.2-10
liballegro4.4 v2.4.4.2-10
