I'm guessing you probably have a libX11 that doesn't like that $DISPLAY. Check 'otool -L <your binary>' and make sure it's linked against /usr/X11/lib/libX11.dylib and not one in in your macports, fink, /usr/local, etc directories. If you want to compile libX11 for yourself rather than use ours, make sure you use a recent git snapshot (http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/lib/libX11.git;a=summary) or atleast this patch http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/lib/libX11.git;a=commitdiff;h=e8d4cefa0837afa149a10e981528b368485a9e38;hp=13ac80469f6958cabac596834e203bd9cb6d4c94

You also need an updated libxtrans when compiling libX11 (yes, when *compiling*)... so if macports or whatever installs its own libxtrans without our patches, it can mess up the libX11 install. You can find those patches in freedesktop git as well.

Hi there,
till yesterday night, I could start my Scribus 1.3.3.9
installed with MacPorts 1.600 on a MacBook Pro, 2 GHz running 10.5.1
and using X11-2.1.1 handsomely just with a Terminal command... great!
Then I fiddled around a little too much, I guess, installing and uninstalling new ports, eventually installing scribus from scratch and now I get this:

Macintosh-2:~ thorsten$ scribus _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Cannot connect to non-local host ? XIO: fatal IO error 22 (Unknown error: 0) on X server "/tmp/launch- yffOJE/:0" after 88 requests (87 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
My DISPLAY env is
DISPLAY=/tmp/launch-yffOJE/:0
What is going wrong here?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Thorsten.
