Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated openmotif package that fixes various bugs is now available for Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The openmotif packages include the Motif shared libraries needed to run
applications which are dynamically linked against Motif, as well as MWM, the
Motif Window Manager.

This updated openmotif package includes fixes for the following bugs:

• Prior to this update, the size set in the GeometryManager() function based on
  the XmFormConstraint "preferred_width" field was not updated when the label was
  changed and still contained the previous label length. Consequently, if the
  label text was modified while the window was smaller than the actual label
  width, the resulting size was incorrectly computed and the label text truncated.
  With this update the values are updated and the fault no longer occurs in the
  scenario described. (BZ#583977)
  
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 was released with Open Motif 2.3.0, which
  introduced a bug in the LabelGadget widget. Consequently, under certain
  circumstances, LabelGadget could have drawn over a parent window with the
  background color and, if using the Xft fonts, also over the text. With this
  update, the text and background drawing the code has been corrected and the
  problem no longer occurs. (BZ#584287)
  
• Prior to this update, the XmeTraitSet() function in ToolTips added Traits but
  they were never removed, even when the objects were destroyed, which resulted in
  memory leaks. With this update, the incorrect code has been fixed and memory
  leaks no longer occur in the scenario described. (BZ#644824)
  
• Prior to this update, the foreground and background color for insensitive
  labels (labels on items which are not currently sensitive or clickable) could
  sometimes be identical when using Xft fonts. As a consequence, text in
  insensitive labels using Xft fonts were invisible. With this update, the code
  has been corrected and the problem no longer occurs. (BZ#684210)
  
• Double free errors occur when free() is called more than once with the same
  memory address as an argument. Prior to this update, the helper widget
  "im_widget" could be closed twice, leading to a double free error, when the
  parent widget was closed. With this update, the code has been corrected and the
  problem no longer occurs. (BZ#695650)
  

All users of openmotif are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
fixes these bugs.
