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?
Searching the list is always useful, as this has just been discussed, see http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2007-July/004596.html http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2007-July/004620.html

Fair enough. Google searching didn't show anything, but next time I'll search the macports bugs and the mailing list. Is the mailing list searchable somewhere, or do I need to look through the archives? I have been using gentoo for a long time, and I am stilling getting used to macports. In gentoo, if something like this popped up, the "port" would be removed in favor of an earlier version that worked; that is until the port was fixed. Is there an earlier version readily available? I'm guessing not by the thread referred to above. In that case, what is a typical time frame for a bug like this to be fixed? Thanks, Jonathan P.S. I expect I'll be helping out with ports development before too long, and so my questions should not be construed as complaints. Just trying to learn!
