Description Niall S Cearbhaill 2001-08-10 20:33:40 UTC 
Description of Problem:
When exporting a diagram from xfig to EPS format, fig2dev reports a missing
file "en_US.ps" in directory /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fig2dev, and fails to
create the exported file. Ditto for GIF format.

Quick fix: I placed a dummy file "en_US.ps" in above directory and it
worked!


How Reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. run xfig, and create simple diagram, save it
2. export, choosing Encapsulated Postscript
3. Error message from fig2dev appears

Actual Results:
exported file not created

Expected Results:


Additional Information:
See quick-fix above

It's fixed xfig-3.2.3d. You find it in next rawhide release.
