Package: clustalx
Version: 1.83-1.2

The programm 'clustalx' terminates with 'Segmentation fault' soon after
starting when used together with 'lesstif2=1:0.95.0-2'.

The error occurs on a system running Debian/i386/testing. The error
occurs with the following packages installed:

If I start clustalx, I get a segmentation fault immediately after starting the 
programm:

  [EMAIL PROTECTED]: /usr/bin/clustalx
  Segmentation fault


If I downgrade 'lesstif2' to the version included in 'Debian/i386/stable' 
(etch), clustalx
runs normally.

  apt-get --reinstall install 'lesstif2=1:0.94.4-2'

I am not sure if this bug has to be assigned to clustalx or to lesstif2.
I have just run another quick test which shows that also the programm 'sequin' 
from
package 'ncbi-tools-x11' terminates with 'Segmentation fault' when 
'lesstif2=1:0.95.0-2'
is installed. 'clustalx' and 'sequin' both depend on 'libvibrant6a' and
on 'lesstif2'.
