Bug#821751: plasma-desktop: Font Management: Unable to delete/disable fonts
Package: plasma-desktop
Version: 4:5.4.3-1
Severity: normal
I am not able to delete or disable fonts.
System Settings > Appearance > Font > Font Management
Select multiple fonts
Delete them
"Error" "Backend died, but has been restarted. Please try again."
Somtetimes /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/kauth/fontinst starts eating 100% CPU on a core.
It is noteworthy that sometimes the action succeeds, especially if doing them one-by-one, but I didn't see a pattern.
Verified on a 2nd system with different hardware too.
