This is actually a bug in lesstif. (More accurately, in the libc6 lesstif contained in the package called "lesstifg") You can fix it (supposedly, according to the lesstifg maintainer) by installing the lesstifg from slink, version 0.84-1 or higher. (I think the current version is something like 0.85.3-1) Once you do install this, I _strongly_ suggest putting lesstifg on hold (with an equals sign) in dselect. Unfortunate mistakes with version numbering means that the hamm lesstifg will try to come back if you don't do this. -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
