#18224 closed defect (fixed)

xfig won't start (3.2.5_4)

Reported by: helgel@… Owned by: pguyot (Paul Guyot)

Component: ports Version: 1.7.0

Port: xfig

Description (last modified by jmroot (Joshua Root))

Hi I have trouble getting xfig to run. It says

Warning: No type converter registered for 'translations' to 'InitialResourcesPersistent' conversion.
Warning: No type converter registered for 'TranslationTable' to 'Translations' conversion.
Warning: No type converter registered for 'TranslationTable' to 'Color' conversion.
Warning: No type converter registered for 'TranslationTable' to 'InitialResourcesPersistent' conversion.
Warning: No type converter registered for 'translations' to 'Meta' conversion.
Bus error

I must admit I am fairly novice when it comes to anything "under the hood", so might also be that I have done some very silly mistake here. Anyway, I ran my bi-weekly "sudo port upgrade installed" some days ago, and I guess something must have gone wrong then. xfig used to work nicely, but when I needed it today it was dead. I have tried to uninstall & re-install xfig but to no avail. Probably some of xfig's dependencies were updated recently, and xfig cannot cope (... must admit I am guessing here...).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure if corroborating users are useful or not, but I have the same error. I haven't used xfig in about a month, so I'm not sure exactly when it would have started, but I got the exact same error this evening.

The other day I noticed a whole bunch of new X windows stuff being built, so like the original poster, I rebuilt xfig and (I think) all the dependencies with port -f upgrade xfig. Afterward, I still get the same error.

Maybe it helps.

Exactly the same problem for me.

I use the version of gcc provided with Xcode, which is: i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5490)
