any idea what this error is? The system is working quite hapily and has been up and running all day. I'll reboot it later and see what happens.

| It means that program called "factorial" had crashed. |

| I think the question is "what is factorial"? I haven't heard of it but I just got this message myself, this was my first search result.. |

Me, too. Which package does it belong to.

equery belongs `which factorial` # requires gentoolkit
But it looks like author of this thread is not interested in the problem. |

I'm interrested.
This is the output of equery that I get
| Code: | # equery belongs `which factorial`
which: no factorial in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.1.1:/usr/kde/3.5/sbin:/usr/kde/3.5/bin:/usr/qt/3/bin)
List all packages owning a particular set of files
|
And
returns nothing.
I suspect that the segfault was during install of some package, when running a test. But I'm not sure.

That's very probable. Try to search the logs and get the date and time when it happened. Then use some emerge log parser (for example qlop, part of portage-utils) to extract information which package was being compiled. |

After a llong time looking at this, it is related to a crash of proftp server!
flagged resolved.

| factorial is a one of mysql's test cases. It segfaults on every single x86_64 system I've ever built mysql on, so I've just decided to ignore it. I haven't had any problems with mysql though, but I don't really do anything strenuous with mysql either. |
