Hello,


If you pass in an empty string it crashes.  This bug has been fixed in the 
freetype cvs.


It's a really bad bug in practice, because it cases lots of programs to crash at different times. As normally passing an empty string is ok.

I noticed it when using pygame programs, which use sdl_ttf - and freetype.

Cheers,

Hello,

Sorry to keep the bug unattended for so long, the previous maintainers
didn't take care of this bug and there's now an effort to review all
of the bugs related with SDL packages.

By the comments in the bug report it seems that it was fixed upstream
(freetype, not SDL_ttf) about 5 years ago, so I think that it can be
safely closed by now.  Please reopen with more information otherwise.

Regards.
