Most of demo programs shipped with the BLT Tcl/Tk package crash. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): blt-2.4-30.z.fc11.i586 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. cd /usr/share/tcl8.5/blt2.4/demos 2. wish ./tabnotebook2.tcl 3. wish ./barchart1.tcl 4. wish ./graph1.tcl 5. wish ./tabset2.tcl etc. Actual results: Most of the programs either segfault, or give an error message similar to: X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 147 (RENDER) Minor opcode of failed request: 4 (RenderCreatePicture) Serial number of failed request: 514 Current serial number in output stream: 522 Expected results: obvious Additional info: Some demo scripts actually work ok: ie. wish ./tabnotebook1.tcl wish ./tabset1.tcl

blt-2.4-31.z.fc11 has been pushed to the Fedora 11 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update blt'.

I don't appear to be able to test out the fix: lapss>> sudo yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update blt Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit Setting up Update Process No Packages marked for Update Scott.
yum update worked this morning. *shrug* The update appears to have fixed the X error, but some of the demo programs are now giving a Tcl error: lapss>> wish ./tabnotebook2.tcl Error in startup script: can't read "cosX(max)": no such element in array while executing "expr ($cosX(max) - $cosX(min)) * 0.025" invoked from within "set pct [expr ($cosX(max) - $cosX(min)) * 0.025]" (file "scripts/graph2.tcl" line 102) invoked from within "source scripts/$file.tcl" (in namespace eval "::graph2" script line 3) invoked from within "namespace eval $file { set graph [graph .t.$file] source scripts/$file.tcl .t tab configure $index -window $graph incr index }" ("foreach" body line 2) invoked from within "foreach file { graph1 graph2 graph3 graph5 } { namespace eval $file { set graph [graph .t.$file] source scripts/$file.tcl .t tab configure $ind..." (file "./tabnotebook2.tcl" line 72)
I've narrowed down the bug to a simple test case. It appears that the vector command does not work properly when run inside of a Tcl namespace. Run the following script to see the problem. I'll try to reproduce this with the CVS version of blt and report it upstream. #!/usr/bin/wish package require BLT namespace import blt::* vector create x x seq 1 10 1 puts "Outside of namespace: x contains [x range 0 end]" puts "Outside of namespace: x min is $x(min)" namespace eval testNs { vector create y y seq 1 10 1 puts "Inside of namespace: y contains [y range 0 end]" puts "Inside of namespace: y min is $y(min)" }

Re-opening bug since the update doesn't really fix this latest namespace issue.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
Reopened. My comment on 13/Jan/2010 still applies for Fedora 12.
