Package: xview-clients
Version: 3.2p1.4-19
Severity: normal

If I run cmdtool it errors out saying: 

All pty's in use
XView error: NULL pointer passed to xv_set

This page [http://www.physionet.org/physiotools/xview/#linux] says
that the problem is caused by the kernel not supporting BSD style ptys.

It also says that they have updated the source code to support UNIX98
ptys. The source is available here:
