XEphem fails on MacOS 10.15.3 with Macports


 

After upgrading to Catalina, XEphem (installed via Macports) fails at runtime:

% xephem

Building shell

Reading X resources

Checking args

Checking colormap

Building icon

Building main window system

Connecting actions

Building main menu bar

Warning: Fatal Error:

_XmGetDefaultDisplay cannot be used prior to VendorS.Initialize, returns NULL

Segmentation fault

%

This does not appear to be a Macports problem strictly, as it compiles and installs properly.
