Subject: slink/main/binary-i386/libs/lesstifg_0.86.5-1.deb causes GUI problems
Cc: andersee@debian.org
Package: lesstifg
Version: 0.86.5-1
I recently installed the latest lesstif in slink and suddenly many programs
which use the library started showing strange GUI problems.
For example, with NEdit, it *always* starts up with a large empty space (about
200 pixels !) between the menu and the editing window. I can resize the window
to get rid of the extra space. (Version of NEdit used is
dists/unstable/non-free/binary-i386/editors/nedit_5.02-2.deb).
Simalarly, with ddd (version 3.0-6), in the top data window, if I'm checking
the value of a structure and want to checkout it's fields, I have to resize the
windows/play around with scrolling to get the window to show it's contents
correctly.
All of these problems disappeared when I downgraded
to hamm/main/binary-i386/libs/lesstifg_0.83-7.deb
Thanks !

>From the Changelog:
lesstif (1:0.86.9-2) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* Built for frozen. Lesstif version 0.86.5 has some bugs that show up
as grave bugs in amaya (#28390) and ddd (#27778), and I've had two
independent reports that this version fixes them.
