Have you reported this issue on launchpad? If 10.04 is indeed intended to be an LTS distribution, having a bug like this could be an annoyance that will linger if it's not fixed early. The LTS releases tend not to update components very often. If lesstif has this bug now then the version in 10.04 could easily continue to have that bug for the whole 3-year life of the release. I keep my main SAR laptop on an LTS release for stability, but the trade-off is that sometimes a package gets busted and stays that way, and I have to build from source instead. On the other hand, perhaps the entire issue could be gotten rid of by using OpenMotif instead of Lesstif (as recommended in the various Ubuntu HowTos on the wiki). Have you tried using OpenMotif instead of lesstif? -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM In some cultures what I do would be considered normal. -- Ineffective daily affirmation _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
