I downloaded the source rpm for version 0.7.9-5.fc18 from ftp://ftp.icm.edu.pl/vol/rzm2/linux-fedora-secondary/updates/18/SRPMS/pspp-0.7.9-5.fc18.src.rpm. I verified that this version does not in fact contain the fix in question. You will need to find or build a newer version that contains the fix.

I switched over to Fedora 18 before I tried to save a portable file with psppire again. Using version 0.7.9-5.fc18, the "hang" bug is still happening. If I let the program go, it would fill up my disk, so I have to forcibly terminate it.

The build sha1 code is: c975d7c1fbc45f067d82e0aad5a5777e59139cf3

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the report. This bug was fixed already in the latest version of PSPP. (I verified this by reading your .sav and then writing a .por with the latest version.) You may want to upgrade.

The commit that fixed it was:

Program: psppire 0.7.9
OS: Fedora 17

After reading in a .sav file and trying to create a .por version, the program hangs while the driver creates a file of ever increasing size. Program has to be forcibly terminated. The resulting file contains nothing usable.

Note: The *.sav file I'm using is an original SPSS file. I've attached it.
