View in context in the libbitcoin Slack #general mirror.

on a fresh install on debian 12, bn was working. Then I executed ./bn -t

./bn -t
Using default configuration settings.
Database is started.
Getting first [100] output address hashes.
Segmentation fault

and now bn doesn't run anymore

./bn

Re the segfault, This commit includes a number of unverified changes. I'm working through a significant bunch of changes. I suggest working form this one until I can verify them (though I'm not sure if this remains in sync with other repos, as they have advanced as well). We have release branches for this reason. Working form master can be a challenge because it changes quickly. https://github.com/libbitcoin/libbitcoin-node/pull/704/commits/3fe83b9e1236e35f7451342cf82cd709dc04d91f
