https://archive.archlinux.org/repos/2018/02/28/multilib/os/x86_64/lib32 -harfbuzz-1.7.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz You can install this on Arch systems with the following command: pacman -U /path/to/lib32-harfbuzz-1.7.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz If you do install this package, be sure to blacklist it from being upgraded by placing the following line /etc/pacman.conf: IgnorePkg = lib32-harfbuzz Rob On Sun, 2018-03-11 at 22:49 +0100, Thomas Kluge wrote: > Hi Rob, > > When I tried to start one of the utility programs today I got an > error: > > (k3util:2054): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_hash_table_insert_internal: > assertion 'hash_table != NULL' failed > I think this is just a warning but it was followed by a segfault... > > All my Elecraft utility programs were affected (k3util, p3util, > kpautil). > > I'm running Gentoo Linux which is up-to-date (most of the packets are > the stable versions) and I was not sure when it worked last time... > I've started to look a bit deeper into it and dmesg showed me first > an > issue with the libexpat and then with libpng.
