[xcrysden] error for opening Xcrysden (package require BWidget)

[Carlo Federico Pauletti]

Same issue here if I try to install Xcrysden via AUR (Arch User
Repositories) on Arch Linux. Never happened before (I remember installing
it on quite a lot of machines with no issue). I had to compile the code
manually. I suspect a recent upgrade of the BWidget package caused some
incompatibilities with the code. I will investigate further and let you
know.

Best,
Federico
