I'm now having problems when I launch gitk in the background from a xterm, i.e. "gitk &". First of all, if I press any key after I switch back to the xterm, it just closes. On the prompt "logout" is visible for just a moment before it closes. Secondly, I got the following error log when clicking around in gitk to view some commits. I never had such problems before I updated.
