What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. cd /mnt/PC-INFO/SMA2/sma-bluetooth ; ./smatool -c SMA2500HF30.conf
succeeds
2. cd /home/user ; cp /mnt/PC-INFO/SMA2/sma-bluetooth/SMA2500HF30.conf
/home/user/ ; ./smatool -c /home/user/SMA2500HF30.conf
3. cd /home/user ; /mnt/PC-INFO/SMA2/sma-bluetooth/smatool -v -c
/mnt/PC-INFO/SMA2/sma-bluetooth/SMA2500HF30.conf
Segmentation fault
4. cd /home/user ; cp /mnt/PC-INFO/SMA2/sma-bluetooth/SMA2500HF30.conf
. ; /mnt/PC-INFO/SMA2/sma-bluetooth/smatool -v -d -c SMA2500HF30.conf

Segmentation fault
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
smatool should be callable from any working directory.
Instead I get a 'Segmentation fault' when my working directory is not equal to
the directory where smatool resides.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
smatool-0.14
Gentoo Linux 2.6.39-gentoo-r3
Please provide any additional information below.
From the strace, I see the reason is that smatool doesn't find sma.in.new.
As a solution I propose:
1. in the program catch the error to exit gracefully 'Could not find
/{dir-where-smatool-is-looking}sma.in.new'
2. in the default config file, document that the path to smatool should be
either a full path (or relative to the location of smatool)
3. A more intuitive solution is to make sma.in.new relative to the conf file
