matt. Re: [Fink-users] problem with xfig 3.2.4-2 David R. Morrison Fri, 11 Feb 2005 11:36:15 -0800 Dan, We tracked the problem down: there is a new version of the xaw3d library which breaks xfig. To solve the problem, you should run the command "fink install xaw3d-1.5-8" and then avoid doing a selfupdate until this has been resolved. -- Dave On Mon, 14 Mar 2005, Victor Eijkhout wrote: > xfig (which seems to be an alpha version) crashes immediately when I > hit the "file" button. > > %% xfig & > [1] 24211 > [~/Projects/Teaching/preconditioners-594] %% > xfig3.2.5-alpha5: SIGBUS signal trapped > xfig: figure empty or not modified - exiting > > [1] Abort xfig > > > > There seems to be an old version xfig323, so I remove xfig / > transfig, and install that: > > > %% xfig -help > Xfig 3.2 patchlevel 3d (Protocol 3.2) > ....stuff...... > %% xfig & > [1] 24520 > [~/Projects/Teaching/preconditioners-594] %% Warning: Actions not > found: PlaceMenu, xMenuPopup > Warning: Actions not found: PlaceMenu, xMenuPopup > > [1] Bus error xfig > > > This is the most I can offer (this is the 3.2.5 alpha): > > %% gdb xfig > GNU gdb 5.3-20030128 (Apple version gdb-309) (Thu Dec 4 15:41:30 GMT 2003) > Copyright 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc. > GDB is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and you are > welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain conditions. > Type "show copying" to see the conditions. > There is absolutely no warranty for GDB.
