Furthermore, it seems rather far-fetched to me that the network code itself is faulty. If it segfaults because of some bad socket, it would have been immediately noticed by all 1.9.3 users and fixed promptly. I do recall having a similar situation in one of my tries. I suggest you start off by giving it the default font that it wants. which means, installing the appropriate deb for it, of course. just search for the font name in packages.debian.org, and install the package it's in(I did that as well). Also, you should probably try and compile from the xchat-20021024.tar.bz2 package on X-Chat's site. That's what I used when I actually got it to work yesterday. Lastly, because I still think it's a font issue, you might want to try and compile it with Pango, and then directly with Xft, and see if it exhibits the same behaviour. This can give more accurate information where the problem resides. Hope this helps, Amir.
