Description of problem: ncview cannot find its app-defaults file located in /usr/lib64/X11/app-defaults/ and refuses to run. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ncview-1.92e-8.fc6 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. ncview gxsm-demo-Si100-4deg.nc Actual results: Ncview 1.92e David W. Pierce 13 Aug 2003 http://meteora.ucsd.edu:80/~pierce/ncview_home_page.html Copyright (C) 1993 through 2003, David W. Pierce Ncview comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `ncview -w'. This is free software; type `ncview -c' for redistribution details. Error: I cannot find the proper app-defaults file, which should be named `Ncview'. I need an app-defaults file for ncview version 1.91, but have found version 0.00. (Note: a found version of 0.00 means either no app-defaults file was found at all, or a pre-version 1.60 file was found.) To fix this, you must put file `Ncview' (NOT the executable, which is named `ncview') either in your local $XAPPLRESDIR directory, in the global directory /usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults, or add it to your own .Xdefaults file. (and program terminates) Expected results: It runs and shows the given file. Additional info: This problem might be visible only on x86_64 due to lib -> lib64 (haven't tried i386), but the primary cause is that the app-defaults file is not installed into /usr/share/X11/app-defaults where it belongs. Symlinking it there fixes the problem.
Hi David, Thanks for the bug report! I've moved the file to as you suggest. Please try the new versions (should be available soon-ish) and if its OK then let me know and we can close this bug.
