Hi,
the usage of the "Analyser" or the "FunctionFinder" plugins provoke the crash 
of EDB.

This happens with different unrelated binaries.

Thanks.

Firstly,
Sorry you're having difficulty with edb. I'm sure we'll figure it out.

Next,
I see that you have the plugins loading correctly, does this mean that I can 
close bug #117?

OK, now on to the bug. So for some reason, the linker is not finding:

Instruction<edisassm::x86_64>::Instruction(unsigned char const*, unsigned long, 
unsigned long, std::nothrow_t const&)

My main question is this. Are you installing via a package? from source? If 
from source, SVN or numbered release?

The reason I ask is that I made some changes to edisassm a while ago and while 
I don't *think* it should have made a difference, it's of course possible.

If you compiled from source, please give the SVN version a try as it is far 
more up to date.

Let me know,
Thanks for you patients,
Evan

Hi, thanks for your answer.

I was using the sources from the home page 
(codef00.com/projects/debugger-0.9.18.tgz), and I can't compile the sources 
from the SVN cause of this bug #119.

Thanks ;)

Having the same issue with self-compiled 0.9.18. After compiling from SVN 
(0.9.19) everything went fine and issue resolved.
