Topic
Updated xfig packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6.
Description
The xfig packages contain the Xfig editor. Xfig is an open-source vector
graphics editor, which allows you to create simple diagrams and figures.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Security errata RHSA-2012:0095 changed the way ghostscript handles relative
paths. Consequently, as Xfig relied on the original ghostscript behavior, it
failed to open encapsulated postscript files and returned the execution stack
ending with the following error:
Current allocation mode is local
Last OS error: 2
GPL Ghostscript 8.70: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
EPS object read OK, but no preview bitmap found/generated
Xfig was changed to use absolute paths when executing the ghostscript binary.
With this update, Xfig opens encapsulated postscript files and includes them in
other figures as expected. (BZ#806689)
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
