Was installing MusicKit4.1 and it proceeded just fine until the last couple of lines of the post_install where the line: "ixbuild -fsv -LEnglish . " is supposed to be echoed out and executed to rebuild a .index.store file. But I got Bus Error !...
Tried this command in several other directories unrelated to MusicKit ( like the home directory for me ) Get the same Bus Error..
Then tried a completely clean NS 3.3 image, and that line worked just fine. So it doesn't seem to be the hardware ( I even ran memory tests! ) .. but something munged in my installation which otherwise seems perfectly fine.
Finally back to the original system, I left the -LEnglish piece off .. and it worked! Goes right through and makes an index.score file of the rtf documentions files in whatever directory I happen to run the command in.
So I have something subtle going on ( seemingly language supportwise ) and I can't put my finger on it. The other language packages ( Italian, Spanish, French, Swedish, etc ) are not installed, wouldn't think they would be needed. Insights anyone????
A bus error can be a lot of things! What architecture was this on—I assume you're talking about your Color Turbo slab from the other thread? We should see if it reproduces on i386.
Solved it!
Did some comparison searches on my system and a clean NS 3.3 system looking for "English" since that seemed important and it turns out I was missing a directory under /NextLibrary/Readers called English.reader which contains two files, English.domain and English.swords Copied those on from the clean system and ixbuild now does what it's supposed to without a "bus error" ... kind of an odd thing for a program to do to just crash with bus error instead of saying "hey .. file xyz is missing !" but there it is.
That directory has probably been missing for a very long time, interesting that nothing else on the system has ever seemed to complain about those files.
