Bug#304108: Related to 79303 150180 160919 270322 270324
Upgrading libfreetype6 didn't fix it either.
However, I found that commenting out
FontPath "unix/:7101"
in
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4
stops GIMP->xtns->Script-Fu->Logos->Basic 1
from being able to use an arial font, which caused
X to crash.
Therefore, I suspect this bug is related to the
cluster of 79303, 150180, 160919, 270322 and
270324, as well as 270561.
Further research found that my arial fonts came
six years ago from an old windows emulator named
"wabi".
I've removed the fonts, but it seems to me that
1.) xfstt shouldn't crash on a bad font and
2.) X shouldn't crash when xfstt crashes.
Thanks,
Kingsley
