Thanks for reminding me. I did get a more useful debug from the original computer I was seeing the problem. Here it is:

Could you provide a pcap file that produces the error? So that I can reproduce this. Are there pcap files that work for you? Or in other words does this happen with every pcap you have tried so far?

Also what OS / Linux distribution and version are you running? Any issues during build?

Possibly information about your python setup:

• python version
• are all dependencies installed correctly?

Other notes: .pcap.ng files are not supported and those are sometimes saved with the .pcap extension. It might be possible that you got such a file. Try to convert the file to a normal pcap with a tool like wireshark and try again.

Sorry, I did not get a notification until you mentioned me. I'll take a look at this now.

@pepper-jk .. can you help me out please?

Hi! I'm Hassan Naeem. I'm facing an issue while executing ID2T code. The code gives "Segmentation Fault (Core Dumped)" at the output, once the pcap file is input. Can anyone help me out in this regard please? Why I'm getting such an error.

Screenshot of error attached please.

Now something similar is happening on my other computer as well, which has no pacnew files (no output for the command you gave). Even though I enabled debug on error, doesn't seem to be tripping it for some reason. Here is the output in *Messages*:

pacfiles-revert-buffer: Cannot process file ]4;0;#252525\]4;1;#fd971f\]4;2;#5e7175\]4;3;#a6e22e\]4;4;#435e87\]4;5;#ff9f95\]4;6;#789ec6\]4;7;#dbdcdc\]4;8;#3e3e3e\]4;9;#ffc515\]4;10;#6c9ba5\]4;11;#ddff2a\]4;12;#4977bc\]4;13;#ffb4a2\]4;14;#87ccff\]4;15;#feffff\]10;#feffff\]11;#252525\]12;#feffff\]13;#feffff\]17;#feffff\]19;#252525\]4;232;#252525\]4;256;#feffff\]708;#252525\

I'll try on the original computer I saw the error on later and add that here too.

Let me know if there is anything else you need. This just happens on one computer, not the other (and should be nearly identical set up). And pretty sure pacfiles worked fine on this computer, not sure what changed or when.

Hitting an error when running pacfiles, see below. Not sure what the gibberish is about, but it starts with /etc/ which is the directory of the open file when I start pacfiles (would be my home directory if I was in there instead). It ends with the actual pacfile.

pacfiles--insert-pending-files: Getting attributes: File name too long, /etc/]4;0;#271f1b\]4;1;#b86b78\]4;2;#c0a3b8\]4;3;#c69c8c\]4;4;#6250aa\]4;5;#a07ba8\]4;6;#7e68aa\]4;7;#c9c7c6\]4;8;#44362f\]4;9;#ff788f\]4;10;#ffbcf9\]4;11;#ffc0a0\]4;12;#7557ed\]4;13;#dc8ded\]4;14;#9d75ee\]4;15;#fffefd\]10;#fffefd\]11;[50]#271f1b\]12;#fffefd\]13;#fffefd\]17;#fffefd\]19;#271f1b\]4;232;#271f1b\]4;256;#fffefd\]708;[50]#271f1b\/etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf

Interface will display many of the pacfiles, but then end with a similar output, below. I can Look at diffs or try a merge, but when exiting from ediff the interface is gone (something has gone wrong).

[merge] [diff] [delete] /etc/systemd/homed.conf.pacnew (239.6 day[s] ahead)

Any idea what is happening here? I don't have any strange files in /etc/ or /home/ or wherever the current working directory is. Not sure where the file is that is causing it to trip up. The find command used to find the pacfiles works fine in a terminal.

Can anyone say what is the reason behind this error,I am unable to solve it.

can anyone say what is the reason behind this error and also It is showing cmake is not successfully completed.
