  9. X-Mailer: mh

  11. From: Gerhard Wilhelms <Wilhelms@uni-augsburg.de>
  12.  
  13. Just installed xdvik-1.8 on AIX 3.2.4 with gcc-2.5.8. Everything
  14. compiled smoothly but xdvi displayed no PostScript figures included
  15. with \epsfbox.
  16.  
  17. The problem is in epsf.c, line 532:
  18.  
  19.     bitmap = get_bitmap(psfilename, epsf_scale, epsf_scale, llx, lly, urx, ury,0);
  20.  
  21. The last argument to get_bitmap should be 0.0 instead of 0. On
  22. AIX with the configuration above the value of 0 is passed as
  23. 4512395720392704.000000 to GhostScript.
  24.  
  25. Regards,
