RE: Grace (xmgrace) 5.1.12-1 graph program -- building under cygwin -- possibly LessTif bug from 0.93.91 ?

["Atwood, Robert C" <r dot atwood at imperial dot ac dot uk>]

Dear Harold and others:

lesstif is the stock version. Also, I reinstalled all my Cygwin earlier
today.


$cygcheck -c lesstif
Package	Version	Status
lesstif	0.93.91-5	OK


Comparing the backtrace from this problem and the other problem, it
really looks like the same bug to me. Can the 'stock' lesstif be updated
to 0.93.94? I thought I had seen the last of that bug a couple of months
ago :~O

Robert,

Please send in the results of "cygcheck -c lesstif" and report on 
whether you have built lesstif yourself or if you are using the stock 
lesstif package for Cygwin.

I get the following output (which is the latest version):

$ cygcheck -c lesstif
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
lesstif              0.93.91-5      OK
