Same problem. Unfortunately, no output from gucharmap whatsoever.
Interestingly, starting with --font='somefont somesize' displays the chosen font and size, but still opens to a frozen window. It may just be a coincidence, but running charmap again (without a font selection) produced a usable window! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gucharmap in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1153012 Title: gucharmap hangs on startup Status in “gucharmap” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 1. Start gucharmap (be it with default font or another one). 2. The main window is displayed correctly. 3. The program freezes, eats 100% CPU. No GUI interaction possible and the window is not even refreshed (if another window is displayed on top, then moved away, the gucharmap window is not repainted). Maybe the problem is due to many fonts being installed on this machine.
