Can someone rebuild dash so it looks in the appropriate place for bitmaps?

the reason that dash crashes when you touch it is because there are 4
images (like...pictures) in the dash.tgz package that don't get
installed into the correct place
they are called {arrow, gray, question, Dash.xbm} and the package tries
to install them in /usr/athena/include/X11/bitmaps/, while the dash
software looks for them in /usr/X11R6/include/X11/bitmaps/
so...you need to make a links for them (or...that's what i do)
so....type this 4 times, once for each "picture"
ln -s /usr/athena/include/X11/bitmaps/PICNAME /usr/X11R6/include/X11/bitmaps
(replace PICNAME with arrow, gray, question, and then Dash.xbm)
hope that helps....
