Dear all,
I have run the updates on this machine, the fedora 7
machine updated to rawhide. I cannot add users and
still cannot add users to troubleshoot errors.
[root at localhost ~]# system-config-users
The program 'system-config-users.py' received an X
Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadName (named color or font does not
exist)'.
(Details: serial 91 error_code 15 request_code 45
minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are
reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after
causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync
command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a
meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the
gdk_x_error() function.)

[root at localhost ~]# rpm -qa coreutils
coreutils-6.10-17.fc9.i386
[root at localhost ~]#
I updated to today's rawhide report, and I get the
following error message
*** removed to save space ****

Error Summary
-------------
So I ran it with
[root at localhost ~]# ./nodep
and got most of the updates.
How can I fix this issue?
Thanks,
Antonio
