Does /sw/share/xfig/Libraries/Fasteners exist on your system? For that matter, is there anything in Libraries/ , or does it even exist? I can't cross-check your problem on my own system just now since I'm traveling and my Mac is offline, but if somebody else has xfig, they can let us know if that directory exists on their system. It might not have been created due to a missing build depend or another build-time issue, and if the whole Libraries/ directory is empty or nonexistent, that could well explain your crash. You could try doing "fink -l rebuild xfig" and check the build log that will be generated in /tmp/ for any errors. -- Alexander K.
