Re: [gccsdk] Various GNU tools - RISC OS system freeze (complete lock-up)

You might need to use PatchSWP (from http://www.tellima.nl/riscos/ )  on them. I've had to do that in the past.

Cheers

Hello,

The following utilities cause RISC OS a major issue, complete system freeze on the closure of the task window:

• Grep 2.18-1
• FindUtils 4.4.2-3
• Diffutils 3.3-1

The packages were obtained from the package manager, and I'm running RISC OS 5.29 (22-NOV-20) on a Raspberry Pi 4.

Another package Fileutils (4.1-1) works on the whole as expected, but "ls" is problematic, it causes a stack trace.

I trust this helps and happy to provide further information.

Andrew
