Package: nedit
Version: 1:5.5-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

After the last "apt-get dist-upgrade", which brought in the X.org X
server, nedit fails to start, and instead gives the following error
message:

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  70 (X_PolyFillRectangle)
  Serial number of failed request:  314
  Current serial number in output stream:  324

A workaround is to download and use the nedit binaries from 
www.nedit.org, which does not exhibit this behaviour.

Here's the last lines from running "ltrace nedit":
