HEAsoft v5.3 Bug List

If you are using HEASOFT v5.3 and don't want to upgrade to v5.3.1 just yet, see the HEASOFT 5.3 Bug List.

Several packages track bugs separately from this page:

• ASCA
• CALDB
• XTE
• fv
• XSPEC
• XRONOS
• XIMAGE

• Mac OS X: Mixing FV and CIAO: The FV GUI may fail on Mac OS X with a bus error if a user sets up their environment for CIAO software after setting up for HEASOFT. In this scenario, FV will search the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH set by CIAO and try to load the wrong set of libraries. If this happens, you can get an updated version of fv HERE (to place in $LHEASOFT/bin - making sure to "chmod +x" it, if necessary), or simply edit your $LHEASOFT/bin/fv and add the following around line 106 (after the "FV" variable has been set):

     if [ "x$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" = x ] ; then \
          DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$FV/lib; \
     else \
          DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$FV/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH; \
     fi; \
     export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH; \
