Package: xterm Version: 210-3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
After a recent upgrade, xterm and other X apps (like xmessage) crash on startup with xterm: symbol lookup error: xterm: undefined symbol: _XA_UTF8_STRING. I think it's not a bug in xterm, but in some X libraries. I attach an output of strace: execve("/usr/bin/xterm", ["xterm"], [/* 23 vars */]) = 0 uname({sys="Linux", node="kocour", ...}) = 0 brk(0) = 0x8093000 fcntl64(0, F_GETFD) = 0 fcntl64(1, F_GETFD) = 0
