bug: static version with -l flag will segfault

[laoshaw]

If eza does something unexpected, or its output looks wrong, or it displays an error on the screen, or if it outright crashes, then please include the following information in your report:

• The version of eza being used (eza --version)
  v0.13.1
• The command-line arguments you are using
  -l
• Your operating system and hardware platform
  ubuntu 22.04 x86

If it’s a crash, please include the full text of the crash that gets printed to the screen. If you’re seeing unexpected behaviour, a screenshot of the issue will help a lot.

if I use the static version, eza_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu_static.tar.gz, when '-l' option is used, it segfaults.

Indeed it does...

Thank you for reporting this.

I think we should first confirm this still happens with v0.14.0 before investigating further.

Confirmed ... getting the same with v0.14.0 (https://github.com/eza-community/eza/releases/download/v0.14.0/eza_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu_static.tar.gz):

According to valgrind there seems to be some uninitialized syscall parameter ... for more info we probably need a debug build to track this down.

@laoshaw ... quick fix for you ... use the static musl builds like: https://github.com/eza-community/eza/releases/download/v0.14.0/eza_x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Also since you are on Ubuntu ... you can install eza from the deb repo mentioned in the README.

[laoshaw]

Thanks. I'm using the shared lib version and it works. Hope eza can get into official deb repo soon.

Okay so according to valgrind it seems like our parallelisation usage is not well supported when using static libs

Isuue is known in rust please don't use statically linked binaries rust-lang/rust#94564
