Anyone running X11 apps on Mojave? [Solved]

Hi, a great thanks!

You were right, it was my specific configuration which was in cause, even if it was not a DISPLAY error.

After a long wile and successives tests I found why it doesn’t work :-)

First, I found that was the « —login » parameter of X11 script which was in cause. If I launch X11 without it, it works. In piratical:
1- the « exec -l /bin/bash --login -c 'exec /Applications/MacPorts/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin' - /Applications/MacPorts/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin » of X11 script won’t work.
2- An «  exec -l /bin/bash -c 'exec /Applications/MacPorts/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin' - /Applications/MacPorts/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin » world fine.
It’s the same thing with XQuartz.

The explanation now:
As I have a BASH v4.3 installed with MacPort, I would use it in my « Terminal.app » sessions and I just add this line in my « ~/.bash_profile » file:
	[ -x /opt/local/bin/bash ] && exec /opt/local/bin/bash
to launch BASH v4.3. I remove it and everything work with X11…

As it is evident now, this « exec » line trouble opening X11 with the other « exec —login ». As explain in the « man bash »:
       When bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a non-interactive shell  with
       the --login option, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if
       that  file  exists.   After  reading  that  file,   it   looks   for   ~/.bash_profile,
       ~/.bash_login,  and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and executes commands from the
       first one that exists and is readable.
So, my « ~/.bash_profile » were read with the first call, not with the second one.

It’s a great new for me but I have a subsidiary question:
   « How can I use the MacPort BASH in place of Apple one? »

If you have a solution…
