teTeX-3.0 is present in FC4 and on, so this is now fixed since FC4. What is with RHEL AS 4.2? This bug report was filed against tetex-2.0.2-21; but the latest version of tetex available for FC3 is tetex-2.0.2-21.7.FC3. Have you tried that version to see if the problem persists? You asked about RHEL AS 4.2. If you find this bug present in RHEL, you will need to file a bug report against the RHEL product. In any event, as this is not a security or critical bug. Fedora Legacy deals only with security and critical bug-fix errata. (See <http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legacy>). This bug is not eligible for being fixed at this time by Fedora Legacy. If you can make a case that this misbehavior in xdvi presents security problems for you or other FC3 users, you are welcome to reopen this bug. As Jindrich Novy notes in comment #1, this has been fixed in FC4. Sorry, wrong resolution in previous close. Yes David, it's still broken in tetex-2.0.2-21.7.FC3. Since current RHEL is based on FC3, I assume that xdvi is broken there, too. I'll check in the near future. tetex-xdvi-2.0.2-22.EL4.7 is broken too. I'll file it on RHEL 4.4. |
Description of problem: xdvi calls xdvi.bin with wrong parameters Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): tetex-xdvi-2.0.2-21.3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: $ xdvi example.dvi Actual results: Usage: xdvi [+[<page>]] [-regression] [-s <shrink>] [-S <density>] [-nogrey] [-gamma <g>] [-install] [-noinstall] [-rulecolor <color>] [-p <pixels>] [-margins <dimen>] [-sidemargin <dimen>] [-topmargin <dimen>] [-offsets <dimen>] [-xoffset <dimen>] [-yoffset <dimen>] [-paper <papertype>] [-altfont <font>] [-nomakepk] [-mfmode <mode-def>] [-editor <editor>] [-not1lib] ... Expected results: Correctly run xdvi.bin -name xdvi example.dvi Additional info: I prepended an echo before the last line in /usr/bin/xdvi which reads: xdvi.bin $NAMEOPT ${1+"$@"} So I could see what xdvi calls. It gave me the "correct" output xdvi.bin -name xdvi example.dvi When pasted in the shell again, this xdvi.bin call works, but not when running xdvi. May be it's an expansion problem of the ${} construction. There must be something wrong, because xdvi.bin is only outputting its usage when called by xdvi.
