[Bug 365763] Re: OpenOffice programs exit at launch
Mac4Lin: see http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=204373. It contains Mac4Lin_v1.0_RC1/Fonts/fonts.tar.gz, which tun turn contains the offending file (Aquabase-spanish-support.ttf). -- OpenOffice programs exit at launch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365763 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 365763] Re: OpenOffice programs exit at launch
As the original bug filer, I cannot confirm that the fonts problem is causing my original bug: If I move ~/.fonts out of the way: $ mv ~/.fonts ~/Desktop $ oowriter ** (soffice:31662): WARNING **: unable to get gail version number [followed by same crash symptoms as always] The last ttf file mentioned in my strace is Inconsolata, installed as the Ubuntu package ttf-inconsolata: 4447 access(/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-inconsolata/Inconsolata.otf, R_OK) = 0 4447 open(/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-inconsolata/Inconsolata.otf, O_RDONLY) = 28 ... Removing and purging ttf-inconsolata does NOT solve my crash and in any case there is no segmentation fault as in Albrecht's strace. Should the crashes due to files in ~/.fonts therefore be tracked in a different bug at least until we're sure that my bug is the same? -- [ooo-build] OpenOffice programs exit at launch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365763 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Where did the two of you get the fonts that caused the problems? I need to examine them to see what the source of the problem actually is.

[Bug 365763] Re: OpenOffice programs exit at launch
I had the same symptoms on Jaunty/PowerPC after I installed the Mac4Lin package. The relevant statements in strace are apparently [pid 8713] access(/home/albrecht/.fonts/Aquabase-spanish-support.ttf, R_OK) = 0 [pid 8713] open(/home/albrecht/.fonts/Aquabase-spanish-support.ttf, O_RDONLY) = 27 [pid 8713] fstat64(27, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=174420, ...}) = 0 [pid 8713] mmap(NULL, 174420, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, 27, 0) = 0x49b28000 [pid 8713] close(27) = 0 [pid 8713] --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) --- [pid 8713] exit_group(78) = ? After re-naming the ~/.fonts folder, soffice comes up again. I then re- named the folder back to .fonts, removed the file Aquabase-spanish- support.ttf, and soffice still works. Looks like a bug in the font engine.

The same here. Although it works on root account.

[Bug 365763] Re: OpenOffice programs exit at launch with unable to get gail version number
A couple of notes: 1. I'm using the Jaunty versions. 2. OpenOffice runs fine on a second Jaunty desktop I use. 3. I don't think this is the same bug as bug 350193, since reproducing 350193 seems to imply that OpenOffice has actually launched to the extent that data can be pasted into a spreadsheet. -- OpenOffice programs exit at launch with unable to get gail version number https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365763 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 365763] Re: OpenOffice programs exit at launch
Both systems were upgrades from Intrepid. OpenOffice worked on both systems on Intrepid (and all previous versions).

Re: [Bug 365763] Re: OpenOffice programs exit at launch
On the non-working system, I just used the Guest account, and OpenOffice works in that account.
