Replying to marc.katona1@…:

If I do a port livecheck netpbm, I see the current version is 10.26.61 and there appears to be a version 10.26.63 available. If I get netpbm directly from sourceforge and build it, I can get pnmtofits to work. Interestingly, the HISTORY for the sourceforge code says the latest revision is 10.49.00 (dec 31, 2009).

So perhaps the problem is already fixed and just not propogated (it would be interesting to resolve the version number difference)

In MacPorts, we are tracking netpbm's "super stable" branch. The request to update to the latest version of the super stable branch is #24069.

netpbm has been updated to 10.47.25, which is the latest revision on the stable branch. pnmtofits does not crash any more.
