This would certainly fix the specific Maple problem, but I suspect there may very well be more packages with the same problem. It's not Maple - specific; it could bite anything which uses the xcompat package. Either setting export XWINHOME=/usr/X11R6 in /etc/profile or recompiling the old X libraries to use /usr/X11R6 if /usr/X386 isn't there should be the Right Thing. I'll be reassigning this to the xcompat package, unless there are strong objections. -- Thomas Koenig, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] The joy of engineering is to find a straight line on a double logarithmic diagram.
