[Xastir] Lib Error

[Gary Bricker]

Yes, I had older RPM's installed.  I removed them and reinstalled the
new tarballs and all seems good.  Tigermaps are working now, which was
what I was trying to do.

And one final thing...  I have been running xastir from a kterm window
in X and I constantly see the following warnings scrolling while xastir
is running....

Warning:
    Name: create_appshell text_output
    Class: XmTextField
    Character '\71' not supported in font.  Discarded.
 
Warning:
    Name: create_appshell text_output
    Class: XmTextField
    Character '\40' not supported in font.  Discarded.

Is this normal or can it be ignored?

Thanks,

Gary
