Xfig installation configuration stage bug
Hello,
I'm not sure which package's fault this is, so I'm not filing this as
a bug yet, but when I installed xfig from the released Hamm (xfig
3.2.0-2) using the APT method of dselect (apt 0.1.3), I got the
following output:
Checking system integrity...ok
The following NEW packages will be installed:

xfig can use Imperial (inches) or metric (cm) units.
Which one do you want by default? [i/m]Update-menus: waiting for dpkg to finish (forking to background)

[ At this stage I didn't see any change for a few seconds, and when running
"top" on another xterm I didn't see any new process, so I pressed "Enter"
and got the text below ]

You must specify either `i' or `m' [i/m]: m
Making metric units the default...done
There are two application defaults (app-defaults) files for xfig -- Fig-mono
and Fig-color. Which one would you like to use? [c/m] c

Xfig installed fine, but there is certainly some bug there.
I'd provide any other info if you like.
Thanks,
