Package: xlibs
Version: 4.2.1-6
Severity: important
Apologies if this is a dupe, there are so many bugs filed against xlibs,
and no search option. Also Apologies if it's simply me screwing up.
This system has some parts from unstable, but all relevant packages
should be from Testing.
I just noticed I could not use Acrobat Reader anymore. The error message
is from /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6. So I tried other Xt programs, and all
that talk to the display fail:
lupe@antalya:~$ appres
Error: Couldn't find per display information
lupe@antalya:~$ editres
Error: Couldn't find per display information
lupe@antalya:~$ ghostview
Error: Couldn't find per display information
lupe@antalya:~$ listres
Error: Couldn't find per display information
lupe@antalya:~$ oclock
Error: Couldn't find per display information
lupe@antalya:~$ oclock
Error: Couldn't find per display information
But:
lupe@antalya:~$ bmtoa < /dev/null
bmtoa: unable to read bitmap from file "(stdin)"
Programs that do not use libXt work OK.
