I'm a bit confused, is this a separate report about a problem using SECTIONS and not another APALL problem (which doesn't call 'sections' as a task)?

If so, could you post more details (e.g. an example that fails, linux or mac, etc) so we can reproduce the problem. One thing to try is to

Hi

It is a separate report, with the same symptoms, therefore I thought I could add it to this discussion. Resetting the use_new_imt worked.

Hope it helps with possible bug source. Do not know if it my system setup/installation or something more.

Thanx
Pat

Hi

OK! I checked another one of our newly updated IRAF systems, and it works fine, so therefore I can assume that the problem with sections is due to a fault in the specific system, and not in the IRAF installation. Uses the same IRAF extraction and installation setup for all our installations.

Use Fedora 15.x86_64 throughout. The problematic system's Linux platform was recently upgraded, so there might be a missing or corrupt lib somewhere. But it now works with the fix provided. I will recheck after each update of the system, might be able to pick up which lib caused the upset. Will let you know if and when I find possible source.

Regards
Pat
