xrmap doesn't start. Here is the console output:

Couldn't find /usr/share/xrmap/i18n/xrmap_msg.cs !!
Using instead default /usr/share/xrmap/i18n/xrmap_msg.en
gunzip: "/usr/share/xrmap/pixmaps/buttons/b0.xpm.gz".gz: No such file or directory
Couldn't read XPM file `/usr/share/xrmap/pixmaps/buttons/b0.xpm.gz'
Neoprávněný přístup do paměti (SIGSEGV)

I think the important row is that with the gunzip command. The file specified inside the quotes exists but gunzip adds .gz behind the file name so the command cannot be executed.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run 'xrmap' from console when kde is run

Actual Results:  
Couldn't find /usr/share/xrmap/i18n/xrmap_msg.cs !!
Using instead default /usr/share/xrmap/i18n/xrmap_msg.en
gunzip: "/usr/share/xrmap/pixmaps/buttons/b0.xpm.gz".gz: No such file or directory
Couldn't read XPM file `/usr/share/xrmap/pixmaps/buttons/b0.xpm.gz'
Neoprávněný přístup do paměti (SIGSEGV)

Expected Results:  
Should display xrmap application window.

a broken user space application does not block you to use Gentoo
Comment 3 Miroslav Šulc gentoo-dev 2004-11-21 02:38:05 UTC 
Maybe I misunderstood the sense of blocker severity. This bugs blocks me from using the app. I also cannot use another version because there is only one version in the portage tree.

I have exactly the same problem - gunzipping each xpm-file and specifying them on command-line with -pixmap solves it temporarily - but that's not a sufficient solution, not only because even then the CIA factbook file itself is not available to the app
Comment 5 Andy Romeril 2005-02-20 23:17:21 UTC 
Seeing the same problem here. 

I suspect that the modifications to the Makefile (using 'sed') in the ebuild are either adding or omitting something.
Comment 6 andrew lorien 2005-04-04 03:57:13 UTC 
this is just a bump really,
but i have the same problem exactly

also i notice 2.30 is now available
Comment 7 Jonathan Smith (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-15 09:24:35 UTC 
new version seems to work
