Hi all.
I'm learning to write widgets (Xt, running on a RPi).
My widget code (xft font, label+button functions) seems to work fine, but the Xaw3dXft (1.6.2b) toolkit stoped working. Font Drawing doesn't work.
Label borders are drawn, but no fonts are rendered.

i tried debian wheezy and archlinux/enlightenment(latest git release).
you can check this if you just install xpaint (it is using the xaw3dxft toolkit).

has somebody any idea? (is somebody still writing widgets for Xt?)

Frankly, I didn't ever know that there're libXt-based toolkits
providing easy access to client-side font rendering.

Sadly, my guess is that nobody is.
