Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xfig

Version: 1:3.2.5-alpha5-9ubuntu1

1. install xfig: apt-get install xfig
2. run xfig: /usr/bin/xfig
3. create simple drawing (need a non-empty file)
4. export: file->export, give file name, click "Export"
5. see error complaining about "fig2dev"

According to the manpage, xfig relies on the "TransFig" package when
printing or exporting ("The fig2dev program from the TransFig package is
called by xfig as a back-end processor to produce various types of
output").

Workaround: installing the transfig package (apt-get install transfig)
fixes the issue.

Suggest making transfig a dependency of xfig; otherwise basic operations
(printing, exporting) will not work.
