1. psql core dump on login

   PostgreSQL Bugs List <pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org> — 2001-03-22T18:34:20Z

   Leandro Peracchi (peracchi@totobola.com.br) reports a bug with a severity of 2
   The lower the number the more severe it is.
   
   Short Description
   psql core dump on login
   
   Long Description
   The default pg_hba.conf file have these two entries:
   
   local                               trust
   host   127.0.0.1  255.255.255.255   trust
   
   So, when psql is called no password is required.
   But when change "trust" to "password" (or "crypt") psql require a password.
   Then, entering the correct password or not, psql exit with a core dump.

   Stack trace from core file, please?
   
   	gdb /path/to/psql core
   	bt
   	quit
   
   Also, where did you get your psql executable from, or how did you
   configure/build if you built it locally?
