Bug#215076: xfonts-scalable: I also see SEGV on Type1 directory.
Package: xfonts-scalable
Version: 4.2.1-12.1
Followup-For: Bug #215076
-- System Information:
Debian Release: testing/unstable
Architecture: i386
Kernel: Linux duron 2.4.22 #72 Thu Sep 18 01:08:58 JST 2003 i686
Locale: LANG=ja_JP.ujis, LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.ujis (ignored: LC_ALL set to ja_JP.ujis)
Versions of packages xfonts-scalable depends on:
ii xutils 4.2.1-6 X Window System utility programs
-- no debconf information
As reported previously in the bug # 215076 by a different
reporter, I see a very similar SEGV during apt-get install.

So this problem is not a fluke and
occur only on someone's computer and I suspect
the problem is observed on more computers.
If the maintainer doesn't see the problem on his/her computer, it is
too bad.
Maybe the installation of international fonts might have something
to do with the problem behavior? I see the earlier reporter has an
e-mail address in French domain (.fr).
I try to install many Japanese fonts for my use.
After the upgrading (apt-get -u upgrade) and the failure of
xfonts-scalable, I see some missing Japanese fonts warning from
mozilla which I didn't have before this upgrade attempt this morning. (I
don't know if this is related to the xftcache problem or the fonts are
really missing in the newer packages.)
The font "-*-*-medium-r-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-*-*-r-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-*-*-*-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" does not support all the required character sets for the current locale "ja_JP.ujis"
(Missing character set "ISO8859-1")
(Missing character set "JISX0208.1983-0")
(Missing character set "JISX0201.1976-0")
My Type1 directory contains the following files today.

BTW, if I recall correctly, I think I have seen a similar SEGV problem
with unstable version of xfonts-scalable earlier this year
on Speedo directory, too on a different PC.
But today's installation seems to have handled Speedo without a problem.
Speedo directory contains the following files today.
/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo:
... 588
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2003-10-13 04:43 .
drwxr-xr-x 17 root root 4096 2002-06-30 18:35 ..

PPS: I tried apt-get under different LANG and LC_ALL
setting just in case ( set them both to C.)
But things have not changed. The same SEGV error.
Hope this helps a little bit.
