[Freeciv-Dev] Re: (PR#11764) 2.0 beta 5 client closing itself automatically, possibly a bug

[Adam Luchjenbroers <Adam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sounds somewhat similar to a problem I've had with the Beta 5 client. Although 
in my case the client crashed first, and then crashed on every reconnection 
attempt (autotoggle was enabled). The client window would just disappear when 
we attempted to reconnect (saving the game, and then loading it, joining and 
restarting seemed to work around this).

If I restart from a terminal window, the following output is shown:
0: tech "None": requires itself
civclient: tech.c:115: build_required_techs_helper: Assertion `0' failed.
Aborted

Would these be the same issue?

OS is Fedora Core 3, this occured on two seperate machines (both were FC3).

A google search turned up only this thread, not sure if it's relevant to the 
current problem, but the same code appears to be involved (and the patch 
provided in that thread appears to include the very assertion that is 
failing).
