Thanks. Summed-up a bit too well for me, I'm not sure that I fully
understand.
The message suggests that Xt is no longer available, is that so? Do
you know what consequences that has for packages that used it?
Strange, I tried to rebuild tetex yesterday after upgrading to
XFree86-bin 4.3.0-2
XFree86-prog 4.3.0-4
and xdvi had the same problem, so I dismissed that a rebuild would
help.
Ah, but it turns out that (the not-to-be-used-with-1.5.x) libXt.a is
still being shipped in XFree86-prog 4.3.0-4. Now I'm confused.

No, indeed. I specifically asked at cygwin-apps and I was advised not
to wait for xfree to be rebuilt against 1.5.x before rebuilding and
releasing tetex, which depends on xfree.
Greetings,
Jan.
