Title:
gnome-font-viewer crashes with the 'webdings.ttf' font from the ttf-
mscorefonts-installer package
Status in gnome-font-viewer package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
On updated Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with Font Viewer 3.16.2, I get the
following crash:
john@thunder:~$ gnome-font-viewer
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/webdings.ttf
(gnome-font-viewer:20485): Pango-CRITICAL **: pango_find_base_dir: assertion
'text != NULL || length == 0' failed
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The font in question comes from the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package.
For checking the specific font file my system downloaded,
john@thunder:~$ md5sum /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/webdings.ttf
1a56b45a66b07b4c576d5ead048ed992
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/webdings.ttf
