Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xterm

The traditional X clients do not run, probably due to a configuration
issue, but I haven't managed to identify why. The applications print an
error message and terminate, they do not crash, but are nonetheless
unusable. These days, xterm is probably the only one many people are
likely to care about, but the other programs do not run either:

$ xterm
xterm Xt error: Unresolved inheritance operation

$ xclock
Error: Unresolved inheritance operation

$ xfontsel
Error: Unresolved inheritance operation

$ export|grep DISPLAY
declare -x DISPLAY=":0"

$ lsb_release -a
