Assigning to nedit maintainer, because he's around more often.
(The assignment is not meant as punishment for that!)

CC'ing ncl maintainer.

Feel free to reassing :-)

Well, nedit is really long-in-the-tooth, is not actively maintained, and was mostly superseded by other editors. It's not a good decision to continue using it. Anyway, what I think I'll do is rename this "ncl" thing (whatever it is) to "/usr/bin/nedit-ncl". Stay tuned.

I renamed nedit's "ncl" to "nedit-nc" in nedit-5.6-2.mga6.src.rpm (its original name was "nc"), and I submitted it to Cauldron. So this bug should be fixed.
