Start xfig. 2. Select polyline. 3. Select line_style dash-dotted (internal code 3) 4. Draw polyline. Xfig crashes. Similarly, if I try to open a .fig file containing an object with line_style dash-dotted, xfig crashes with a similar message: xfig3.2.5c: SIGSEGV signal trapped xfig: Figure is empty or not modified - exiting without saving. [1] Abort xfig -specialtext -latexfonts -startlatexFont default SAVE.fig (core dumped) Creating and reading in files using solid (code 0), dashed (code 1), or dotted (code 2) lines causes no problems. Dash-dot-dot and dash-dot-dot-dot (codes 4 and 5) also cause a crash. *** After doing a little searching for this error, I found nothing on the cygwin site. I did find some discussion of (what sounds like) the same error on a couple of linux sites, from 2014: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-updates/2014-02/msg00049.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-bugs/2014-01/msg02798.html https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1023744 A proposed fix for ubuntu: http://rlog.rgtti.com/2014/06/26/quick-fix-xfig-bug/comment-page-1/ I did try reinstalling xfig on cygwin, to make sure I had the most current version, in case this bug had been fixed, since this seems to be a known error. Then I repeated the steps above. Xfig still crashed. Any way for me to get a version of xfig on cygwin with this bug fixed? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
