Description:
After the update of libpng, xfig randomly crashes continuously :(

The message collected in console is nothing but the following line:
xfig3.2.5b: SIGSEGV signal trapped

it saves the SAVE.fig and exits :(

Additional info:
* package version: xfig-3.2.5b-7 both binary and rebuild from ABS (I figure maybe it was outdated somehow)



Steps to reproduce:
use xfig !
This task depends upon

Looks like an X issue. Maybe related to the xaw3d update.

(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/xfig

hey man, thanks for your time and efforts.
If it is related to xaw3d update... does it mean I should fill another bug report there?

I can reproduce this by starting xfig and trying to pop up a tooltip (e.g. hovering a button in the toolbox).

I've narrowed it down to this when compiling Xaw3d:
* Bad: -O2
* Good: -O1
* Bad: -O1 -fstack-protector

Interesting.

Ok, not sure what solved it. BUT after the today's upgrade it behaves rock solid.

Not sure what it was... among the upgraded packages I found some suspects:
libjpeg-turbo? xorg-mkfontscale? xorg-mkfontdir? xorg-xinit?
but definitively no Xaw3d on sight.

as you said: Interesting.

Edit: typo

Just updated here and I can still consistently reproduce the crash. Downgrading libjpeg still does not fix it; rebuilding xaw3d with different options still does, as mentioned above.
