Ouch, that is a bad one... I just reproduced an a i386 computer running
Lenny... I have sent a private mail to lesstif2's maintainer to ask for
his opintion. By the way, I thought about increasing the bug's severity,
but then it would also pretend that clustalx is unusable on Etch because
the version numbers are the same, although it works well in this relase.

In order to help to fix this bug, I have tidied the package and moved
the patches from .diff.gz to debian/patches (using quilt). It is in the
SVN, and I have uploaded a proposed updated source pacakge in
mentors.d.n:

http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/non-free/c/clustalw

Concerning the original error which started this thread, we figured out
that it affects some other programs running with 3D acceleration, and
that exporting LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true suppresses the symptoms.

Nelson, in the meantime Sasa Ranisavljevic downgraded his system to Etch, so
it is not convenient for him to report the bug anymore. Can you report
the bug ? I think that it depends on the X setup since I can not
reproduce it on my machine running Lenny.

PS: The morale of the story is that when the popcon score drops, there
is always a reason.
