I want to point out that, although probably very few people still use the XView applications in the xview-clients package (like cmdtool), there still exist some important XView tools, mainly in the scientific / medical area, which are not easy to replace. Even less by free software. As for myself, I am a developer of such an application, and received a report about the problem with Ubuntu. This comes from the fact that those software has originally been developed on Sun Solaris machines, where the XView toolkit was being used. Some of these applications had been ported to Linux when PCs became cheaper than Sun workstations. I hope they will continue to work in the future.
