Package: fontconfig Version: 2.4.1-2 Severity: important Hello,
on our systems after an upgrade to recent etch, most gtk-based apps show only empty boxes instead of fonts. See http://planck.djpig.de/~mcornils/konten.png (German locale) This in effect renders the whole GNOME desktop unusable (please consider upgrading this bug to serious!). I tried to look at bug #385448 for hints, but this seems unrelated since it effects Western fonts, too; also, downgrading pango and/or fontconfig did not seem to help. However, for Firefox, MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 firefox eliminated the problem. So maybe this bug is a pango bug after all (feel free to reassign accordingly). fc-cache --force as root as well as as user did not seem to help either. gaim, when started from the command line, shows: ---snip--- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gaim (gaim:8040): Pango-WARNING **: shape engine failure, expect ugly output. the offending font is 'Bitstream Vera Sans 10.4208984375' (gaim:8040): Pango-WARNING **: pango_font_get_glyph_extents called with bad font, expect ugly output (gaim:8040): Pango-WARNING **: shape engine failure, expect ugly output. the offending font is 'Bitstream Vera Sans 10' [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ---snip--- firefox even crashes. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-1-486 Locale: LANG=de_DE, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages fontconfig depends on: ii defoma 0.11.10 Debian Font Manager -- automatic f ii fontconfig-config 2.4.1-2 generic font configuration library ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3.3 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfontconfig1 2.4.1-2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.2.1-5 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime fontconfig recommends no packages. -- debconf information: * fontconfig/rendering_type: Bytecode interpreter (CRT screens) * fontconfig/subpixel_rendering: Automatic * fontconfig/enable_bitmaps: true fontconfig/hinting_type: Native * fontconfig/enable_autohinter: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
