Subject: [DNG] netman-gtk3: invalid pointer error
Hi,

I can't free the memory of some pointers ( *cad2 and *res) in
netman-gtk3. This is what i get:

~$ gcc main.c -o main

~$ ./main
*** Error in `./main': munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer:
0x0000000001bfdab4 ***
Aborted

See the comented lines 119 and 120 in the attached file.

The textual output of this applications shows the caracteristics of the
available active wifis.

Any hints?

    Aitor.


Note: you need to install the backend of netman.
