I believe I already ran into this one: If I'm not mistaken, the cairo
backend will use fontconfig, so you should try to set the NSFont (and
NSBoldFont) defaults to one of the fonts available via fontconfig (the
"fc-list"-command will output a list of available fonts). That said, I
highly suspect that your segfault is unrelated to the font issue.
Hi thanks I solved it with:
$ defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSFont 'DejaVu Sans'
The segfault disappeared after font setting. Although I could not
understand why fc-list does not list Helvetica which is a default
installed font.
I more or less consider this is a packager's mistake. I am using a fresh
Debian installation just installed yesterday and have not any customized
configuration. Knowing the default debian installation does not have
Helvetic in fc-list the packager should default to a usable font. After
all many people choose to use a distribution instead of compiling
everything manually is because they want the task to fight dependency &
configuration an optional task instead of mandantory.
