Hi

I'm getting segmentation fault in Dovecot 2.2.11. This happens when trying to do a user lookup by "doveadm user". The machine is running Arch Linux on i686 on ext3.

dovecot -n (I took this when running the previous version that works)

This is the error I get: # doveadm user ... doveadm(root): Error: userdb lookup(...): Disconnected unexpectedly field value

This appears in logs: Mar 08 00:18:40 kernel: auth[15182]: segfault at 4 ip 0805dbbd sp bfd87ec0 error 4 in auth[8048000+4b000] Mar 08 00:18:40 dovecot[15177]: auth: Fatal: master: service(auth): child 15182 killed with signal 11 (core dumped) Mar 08 00:18:40 systemd-coredump[15227]: Process 15182 (auth) dumped core.

And the coredump (if I got it out correctly) # systemd-coredumpctl gdb 15182 TIME PID UID GID SIG EXE Sat 2014-03-08 00:18:40 CET 15182 76 76 11 /usr/lib/dovecot/auth

I'm no expert in debugging, but do tell if you need more info.
