Description Roger Hill-Cottingham 2009-03-15 02:02:52 UTC
After building audacity-1.3.6, and running it from the command line in an xterm, I get the window asking which language I want, then the help window. On clicking the "OK" button, this vanishes, and then nothing. "top" tells me that audacity is still running, but no windows appear.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.# emerge audacity
2.$ audacity
3.(no main window)

Actual Results:  
$ audacity

(language window appears, choose English, this vanishes, to be replaced by the Help window. Choose OK, and nothing else is seen. Program terminated by hitting ^C in the xterm it was started from.)

Expected Results:  
The Audacity main window should appear.


Window manager is fvwm. X11 using the "nv" driver.

Comment 1 Roger Hill-Cottingham 2009-04-02 15:27:32 UTC
Updating to 1.3.7 (with KEYWORD ~amd64) cures the problem.
