I upgraded packages today (30 March). These packages were upgraded/installed: pkg: ca_root_nss reinstalled: 3.15.5 pkg: curl reinstalled: 7.35.0 pkg: dbus reinstalled: 1.6.18 pkg: dejavu reinstalled: 2.34_3 pkg: libiconv reinstalled: 1.14_3 pkg: libopenraw reinstalled: 0.0.9 pkg: db42-4.2.52_5 installed pkg: py27-libxml2 reinstalled: 2.8.0 pkg: qt4-corelib reinstalled: 4.8.5_3 pkg: qt5-core reinstalled: 5.2.1_1 pkg: ruby reinstalled: 1.9.3.484_2,1 pkg: gegl reinstalled: 0.2.0_6 pkg: libcddb reinstalled: 1.3.2_2 pkg: mutt reinstalled: 1.5.23_1 pkg: qt5-script-5.2.1 installed pkg: otter-browser reinstalled: 0.3.01 The next time I ran xinit, Xorg (with fvwm) wouldn't load anymore. It just exits after a second or so and returns to the terminal. There's nothing worth noting in the 'Xorg' or 'messages' logs. I installed twm, but it didn't work either. I installed fluxbox and it worked. I must say I'm surprised as these 3 WMs require libiconv. But I do believe the problem is caused by libiconv because I force-uninstalled it and reinstalled the previous version (1.14_2) and everything works fine again. Of course this is not really a serious fix. >How-To-Repeat: Upgrade to converters/libiconv-1.14_3 and Xorg with fvwm or twm stops working. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
