Xvfb from 2.7.2 missing strndup on Snow Leopard

[gnwiii@…]

Attempting to run Xvfb from Xquartz 2.7.2 on 10.6.8 I get:

$ uname -r
10.8.0
$ ls -l /opt/X11/bin/Xvfb
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2791840 Jun  1 16:15 /opt/X11/bin/Xvfb
$ /opt/X11/bin/Xvfb :2

Trace/BPT trap

​http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/xquartz-changes/2011-November/001351.html indicates that strndup should always be included for cases where xquartz is compiiled on 10.7 but targets 10.6.

Well that just fixed XQuartz. I didn't realize the Xvfb (and maybe other DDXs) were affected as well.

[jeremyhu@…]

As a workaround, just install 2.7.1, backup /opt/X11/bin/Xvfb, install 2.7.2, then replace its Xvfb with the old one.

This will be fixed in the first rc of 2.7.3

[xquartz.macosforge.org@…]

Any chance Xnest is also affected? Getting the below after upgrade to 2.7.3 rc2

$ Xnest :9 -query 192.168.1.102
_XSERVTransmkdir: ERROR: euid != 0,directory /tmp/.X11-unix will not be created.

Yeah, sorry... there was a problem with the fix in 2.7.3_rc2. It will be fixed in 2.7.3.

Replying to jeremyhu@…:

Yeah, sorry... there was a problem with the fix in 2.7.3_rc2. It will be fixed in 2.7.3.

Thanks for confirming, I'll wait for .3

[jeremyhu@…]

No need to wait. It's out.
