no matter if I disable paste64, using the toolbar has the same result
and also, when selecting any entry in this menu, my 2008.0 only beeps, but 2007.0 was able to deal with the task. Could you try 235 just to make sure? echo =x11-terms/xterm-235 >> /etc/portage/package.keywords emerge -va xterm the bug is still present. I was wondering whether it is really about 2007.0 vs 2008.0, I am not sure, but this output may also show that fontconfig use flag couldn't cause this bug. Am I right?

thank you for supporting my bug.
Please try with version #243 and report back. The Xaw initialization falls into a design blackhole which tries to load fontsets (even though the library uses very little of it). You might be able to make the warning go away using the "menuLocale" resource (see xterm manual), setting it to "C". imi@boborjan ~ $ eix -e xterm

It seems like on amd64 -243 is unavailable yet.
however on -242 the bug can be reproduced, also when XTerm is started like:
xterm -xrm "XTerm.menuLocale: C"
xterm -xrm "menuLocale: C"
It sounds as if you're agreeing that using the menuLocale resource makes the problem not appear. (The problem itself is in the X fonts or locale configuration). using those menuLocal commands (stated above), the problem still _does_ appear. oh.. looking closer: the example you gave doesn't use a proper pattern. I'd expect something like xterm -xrm "XTerm*menuLocale: C" xterm -xrm "*menuLocale: C" The first pattern used a ".", which would not work if xterm is compiled with the toolbar (which GenToo does). The second pattern, lacking an "*" would only match applications named "menuLocale". using any of the xterm -xrm "XTerm*menuLocale: C" xterm -xrm "*menuLocale: C" commands generate exactly the same bug. #248 in Portage, anyone available to retest if this issue is still present? Please get back to us. Thanks I saw comments here, which may be relevant: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-x11/2009/06/07/msg000511.html |
