Description gerold.tjon.a.tjoen 2000-04-11 19:55:21 UTC
Redhat includes a version of Xmorph from 1996 which is out of date
and buggy.  I am the author of Xmorph and I get email from your
customers reporting "bugs" or missing features to me, and invariably
the problem is that they're using the Xmorph that comes with
Redhat instead of a more recent version.

Please download the latest version of Xmorph from its web site,
http://www.colorado-research.com/~gourlay/software/Graphics/Xmorph/
and use that in the next release of Redhat.

Thanks.

6.2 shipped with xmorph-1999.12.12, which was the most recent
at the time 6.2 was frozen.
