Waveform 3.8.2 crasches on Debian 10 x64

[nolange79]

Hello,

I get a crash in libusb, which is related to the version of libftd2xx from the adept runtime. replacing the shared library with version 1.4.8 fixes the issue. please update the adept runtime package.

further, I get the following warnings when starting [/usr/bin/]waveforms:

Supposedly mean I am not able to use SSL (for whatever). Adopting the /usr/bin/waveforms to not change the Library load path fixed the issue.
perhaps a package just using (recent enough) system libraries would make sence?

Hi @nolange79

In WaveForms v3.8.2 update checking is modified to use HTTPS, which requires some SSL libraries.
Could you give me a link to download Debian 10?

Please try digilent.waveforms_3.8.6_amd64.deb
https://forum.digilentinc.com/topic/8908-waveforms-beta-download/
In this version Update check option is added with default value of Never.

 

[nolange79]

Even with the warnings, the tool ran fine. I dont know what will happen if the update check is run.
The old libftd2xx will result in a hard crash (segfault in libusb) however.

Debian 10 can be DL from https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/

Hi @nolange79

This disablation of auto update check is just a temporal solution, in order you to be able to use the application, until the problem is solved.

The libftd2xxx.so.1.0.4 in the latest Adept Runtime 2.17.1 is not working under Debian 10 ?

I can run waveforms nicely with the system libraries (QT5 et al), no need for workarounds.

And as said, I copied libftd2xxx.so.1.4.8 over the version from Adept Runtime 2.17.1 to fix the following crash.

I will install Debian 10 in VM here but I trust that the solution to this issue is to update the installers to include libftd2xx.so.1.4.8. Before we can do that we will need to test that version of the library in all of the other distributions that we have to support.

Thanks,
Michael

Thank you for reporting this issue. Adept Runtime 2.18.3 has been published and it includes version 1.4.8 of the FTDI driver. The installers can be found here:

Thanks, that fixed the USB troubles.

I am still running Waveforms with the Qt5 libs from debian though, this is no problem to do but the packet uses the bundled libs by default which have the warnings mentioned above

Hi @nolange79

I will look into this issue.
The SSL is required for update checking, the application is usable with this warnings.
