Description Thomas Schraitle 2006-03-13 09:43:56 UTC 
I installed Skencil (package name skencil-0.6.17-2.1.rpm; vector drawing program) under SL 10.0 but I couldn't start it. It gives me the following error messages:

$ skencil

If you need more information please advise. :)

Let's ask the maintainer.
Comment 2 Ladislav Michnovic 2006-03-13 10:21:57 UTC 
I'll take a loser look.
Comment 3 Ladislav Michnovic 2006-03-13 15:49:09 UTC 
Skencil works fine on 64bit SL 10.1 Beta 5.
Should I fix it for 10.0?
Comment 4 Thomas Schraitle 2006-03-13 16:35:55 UTC 
Well, it might be interesting for other people as well. If it is not too difficult then yes. :) Maybe it could also be a candidate for an online update.

Thanks,
Tom
Comment 5 Andreas Jaeger 2006-03-13 20:34:39 UTC 
Let's do it only for 10.1.
Comment 6 Ladislav Michnovic 2006-03-14 09:19:45 UTC 
Thomas, can you reproduce this bug also in 10.1 ? I can't.
Comment 7 Thomas Schraitle 2006-03-14 14:04:46 UTC 
A quick test on a machine running SLES 10 beta 4 shows that Skencil works there. I will install a fresh SL 10.1 tomorrow.

Hope that helps,
Tom

If crash appears, reopen this bug or fill a new one for SL 10.1.
