Re: [gentoo-user] fcitx crash----something to do with libpng cairo?
check your ~/.config/fcitx/log if you are sure fcitx crashed.

Sorry for my poor English:( But I am afraid that I'm not capable of fixing it myself due to my familiarity with Gentoo and debuging a program.Tried to downgrade libpng cairo today but no luck.The downgrade seems to result in a slot,caused by kdelibs and other packages dependencies I doubt whether it is a solution.I've here got the snapshot of the infomation got after masking libpng-1.6.1 cairo-1.12.14.Hell No! -- Regards, Erick Guan/管啸 (fantasticfears)
Re: [gentoo-user] fcitx crash----something to do with libpng cairo?
problem solved now.I searched through Internet and got the information that the crash wad caused by the newer version of cairo fcitx,which led to a failure of th eload of fcitx's skin.Anyway,developers have had it fixed and after an update of fcitx to version 4.2.7-r1,everything is cool now.Thanks for your attention:)在 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 00:08:56 +0800，Erick Guan fantasticfe...@gmail.com 写道:check your ~/.config/fcitx/log if you are sure fcitx crashed.
