Many thanks for the quick response. With squeeze comes lesstif2 (1:0.95.2-1), which provides libMrm.so.2.0.1 and libXm.so.2.0.1. I checked with ldd, nedit binds to libXm.so but not to libMrm.so. However, neither xpaint not xfig bind to libXm.so (nor to libMrm.so), so lesstif2 seems not to cause the problem.
I found meanwhile that xpdf shows the same problem. I checked with ldd what libraries nedit, xpaint, xfig, xmgrace, and xpdf have in common, they are ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 libc.so.6 libdl.so.2 libICE.so.6 libm.so.6 libSM.so.6 libuuid.so.1 libX11.so.6 libXau.so.6 libxcb.so.1 libXdmcp.so.6 libXext.so.6 libXt.so.6 libz.so.1 linux-vdso.so.1 Some of them can savely be excluded, such as libc.so. Is it possible that the toolkit library libXt.so causes the problem? How can I check that?
