Can you use lldb and see if you can get additional information? It may be an upstream issue.

I edited a copy of the geomview startup script to do lldb gvx (the binary), hence launching geomview-lldb

it looks at first glance like an OpenGL error. Am running XQuartz 2.8.5, which should support OpenGL. (At least, it used to on my old Intel core 2 duo blackbook running 10.6. No idea about this M4 Pro Macbook Pro)

But geomview supports a -noopengl flag to run without OpenGL and just use X primitives (goodbye, texturemapping), and when that flag is used to run the binary in lldb it still segfaults, but differently. lldb dump of that further below, dying in the equivalent X11 parent function instead.

$DISPLAY is set automatically. If I tweak it to just :0, same result. geomview is taking to XQuartz, and segfaults only after communication is established. hope this helps.

Just noting this early report of homebrew geomview segfaulting on a Mac - two years ago. (At the time, I didn't have a recent Mac to test on.)

https://sourceforge.net/p/geomview/discussion/134473/thread/dd3a976dff/

So, is it reasonable from this to assume that the homebrew geomview package has been segfaulting om startup for over two years?

Considering geomview has only been installed 273 times in the last year, that puts it at position #6125 in the list of most installed formulae. I would not be surprised if this has been broken since then, given it's not very popular.

I suspect your argument has breakage/popularity cause and effect reversed.

Since homebrew's geomview package doesn't work and just crashes, nobody is recommending that others use homebrew to install geomview on Macs... it's self-limiting.

Regardless, how can it be fixed?

That would be something best debugged with the geomview developers. Like p-linnane pointed out, we only run configure and make install.

No, I'm pretty sure I have it correct based off my years of experience maintaining Homebrew. If you're the only person who has brought this up in ~2 years, it shows that not many people are interested in installing geomview.

Since homebrew's geomview package doesn't work and just crashes, nobody is recommending that others use homebrew to install geomview on Macs... it's self-limiting.

The odds of someone using brew search or just blindly running brew install geomview are much more likely than seeking recommendations for installation methods from others.

Regardless: we don't know what the issue is and do not have the resources to debug niche software like this. My recommendation is that you reach out to upstream, let them know what you're seeing, and then hopefully they can suggest some fixes that we can add to the formula.
