X.Org 7.0 will follow FHS at last, so you can begin to change your 
scripts. :-)

Hi Kirk,

/usr/X11R6 is going away with the switch to Xorg 7.0, so xterm will stay
in /usr/bin in the foreseeable future.

Cheers,
Julien

Looks good to me.  Thanks.


I find that I am still curious about the path.  I wrote:

/usr/share/doc/xterm/NEWS.Debian.gz:
  * Several things have changed, probably the most obvious is that xterm and
companions are now installed under /usr/bin instead of /usr/X11R6/bin, now
that we got rid of imake and use autoconf tools.


Do you expect this to be the final location, or is this simply an
issue with the build scripts?

no - the normal sense of the option is to disable the definition.
When --disable-imake is given, NARROWPROTO is defined for most platforms.
(But I should document this better, to list the possibilities).

I have released xterm 208-2 this morning, so do not worry. :-) All 
right, 
anyway, you should change the FAQ entry from --disablenarrow... to 
--enablenarrow..., shouldn't you?

ok.  I might make a short #209 this week from those changes (it depends -
I've got 4 other programs that need attention...)

Thanks, your patch with --disable-imake --enable-narrowproto did the 
trick. I 
am going to release a new version right now. Thank you very much.

retesting, I found a typo in the configure script: variable
$default_narrowproto
is used where it should have been
$cf_default_narrowproto

I put a copy of that fix along with the other small fixes I have against
#208 here:

not at the moment.  I'll take a look later today (my development machine
is on Debian/testing, so the Xaw library should be the same).  Perhaps it's
as simple as --disable-imake --enable-narrowproto (about time to enumerate
the possibilities in the faq).

Thomas, I see the same behaviour with or without --disable-imake 
--disable-narrowproto. The toolbar seems to appear and dissapear in its whole 
erratically. Any other idea?

Thank you *very* much, Thomas. I will add as soon as possible this flag 
to 
the configure and will release another version.

Bug#346398: xterm: scrollbar broken; new path

2006-01-07 Thread Kirk Hilliard
Package: xterm
Version: 208-1
Severity: normal

The scrollbar used to indicate what portion of the scrollback buffer
was currently being displayed, but the shaded in portion of the bar
now seems to vary randomly, with no relation to what it should be
indicating.  The scrollbar still functions to control scrolling.

"xterm -sb" is sufficient to demonstrate this.


BTW, I noticed that the path to xterm has changed from
  /usr/bin/X11/xterm
to
  /usr/bin/xterm
.  This is not a problem in itself (just requiring a few changes to
some local scripts with hard coded paths) but it is not mentioned in
the changelog, so I wanted to make sure that the change was not
accidental.

Kirk
