Open Feedback / Bug feedback with yaml-cpp 0.5.2-2 on arch linux 64bit
« on: April 11, 2015, 02:34:23 am »
Hey guys,
I couldn't find any solutions for my problem while I was searching for it and I thought maybe someone somewhere may want to know about this. Hopefully this is a good location for this.
TLDR:
I'm running 64bit arch linux on a macbook and I had a LOT of trouble getting openXcom to work. It turns out, after much handwringing, that the yaml-cpp parser that arch linux has updated to recently (0.5.2-2) doesn't work. I found this out since I had an unupdated machine with yaml-cpp 0.5.1-1 (on which openxcom works). Rolling back yaml to this older version worked on the otherwise updated arch linux installation. I don't know if this may be an issue for linux users on other distros with up to date yamls, which is why I decided to come to the openxcom forums with this.
Here's a sample logfile when the problem was happening:
If you want me to post other information that I can find, do let me know.

rolling back to yaml-cpp 0.5.1-1 fixes the problem.
