The following reply was made to PR ports/4058; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Pedro Giffuni <pgiffuni@fps.biblos.unal.edu.co> To: Thomas Gellekum <tg@ihf.rwth-aachen.de> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ports/4058: Fix for felt-3.02 Date: Mon, 14 Jul 1997 09:45:19 -0700 Thomas; It does not work VERY well because the current patch-ab turns off certain buttons :(. The author recommends Xaw3d. The new patch was thought in such a way that that if someone didn't want Xaw3d, he should simply remove patch-ab from the port. I agree that Xaw3d is not very different from Xaw, and I asked the author to use Motif. I'm not really sure what the best way here is, but in any case old patch-ab must be removed. Pedro.
