I have a special system running fedora 29 and it can not be upgraded due to software issues in newer versions. I have a gambas program that works in every other place except where I need it here. I am running on x11 not wayland. the program is set for 3.8 minimum so that should not be issue

this is what happens when I try to run it. Yes it has an argument with it but same thing happens without it. Not sure where to find the core dump or if it will be helpful. Any ideas? Keep in mind it works flawlessly on other systems. I did notice an issue with this message  "Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module"" in the IDE and showed once in the system also. not sure if related. nor how to fix.

 There was a bug in a version a week or so ago that caused a segfault.

that bug has now been fixed (Aug 10th), are you using latest gambas?

if you cannot update the gambas version on the Fedora machine then maybe compile the program using the gambas on the Fedora computer or on another (VM or something)

 basically I need to just wait and let the fixes come down the line. Long as I know what is going on I can do that.

The system that throws the error has not been updated in a while and is on gambas3  version 3.18.4

 Also you cannot rely on PCODE anymore.

there was a change a while ago (i cannot remember what version, possibly 3.17.x) that changed the way integers are calculated, something to do with fixing an overflow error.

After this change any program compiled on an earlier gambas would need recompiling and not just work.

So setting a program to be compatible with 3.8 does not really work anymore since that change, the program must be re-compiled on the gambas the machine has if it's version predates this change.

you should be able to update the gambas to stable 3.19 (or whatever your other machines use) without updating the system.
I should think the problem is more a gambas related issue not the system.

 actually the issue with update is due to zoneminder. If I update the zoneminder version it will screw everything royally. So I have to stay where zoneminder does not update which mean no update of fedora to 30 or better. I have other gambas programs running on this system without issue, it is just this one. I can't update the fedora version or do anything that will cause zoneminder to update. Means I am stuck on fedora 29 for this computer.

I can work without this program on this system but if it can run it will be great.
