I had the same issue in Ubuntu 11.10. FontForge version 20110225 works; the older version 20100429 in the Ubuntu repository doesn’t. Aleksandr's workaround worked for me. 1. Remove old FontForge. 2. Make sure that git and pythod-dev are installed. 3. Open a terminal window:
$ git clone git://fontforge.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/fontforge/fontforge $ cd fontforge $ ./configure $ sudo make install The executable was at ~/fontforge/fontforge/fontforge -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/817290 Title: Fontforge crashes when control is pressed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontforge/+bug/817290/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
