Bug#717074: pscoast: Rivers/borders are drawn as closed polygons

[Rolf Häfner]

Package: gmt
Version: 4.5.9-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
I found a problem with the current version of the gmt package:

pscoast -JM10 -R0/40/30/50 -Ir/blue -Wblack > pscoastBug.ps

generates a corrupted map: All polygons in the ps file are closed,
which leads to additional straight lines along borders and rivers (see
"http://www.geophys.uni-stuttgart.de/~rolf/pscoastBug.ps".

The problem does not exist in svn r10074, please update as soon as
you have time to spare.

Best regards,
Rolf Häfner
