Hi,
I installed xfig-3.2.5_1 via macports and it crashes when I click on a menu button (File,Edit,View,...). Pulling up a dialog box by a keyboard sequence (e.g. M-o to open) seems to work OK, though. Any suggestions?
I just came across this thread and was wondering whether the issue concerning Xaw3d has been resolved. Since I am having the same problem as described above it would be nice if there was a clean solution. I am aware of the workaround given in other threads. Clearly, this cannot be considered a 'solution'?
By clean solution do you mean the #define XAW3D1_5E thing? I tried it once and it did not work for me. The only solution I found so far is not to use the Xaw3D toolkit. This works well; true, I loose some eye candy but not much and xfig is an ugly (and useful) thing anyway--that's why I like it in the first place.
I absolutely agree. It is useful and I would not want to miss it. By a clean solution I mean that you say "port install xfig" and then it works. True, not using Xaw3d works (also for me) but this can not really be consider a solution, can it? I understand that Xaw3d breaks several ports. However, it is not maintained. Unfortunately.
