That's a bug then, and must be fixed before fontconfig 2.4 can be shipped. The requirement for 2.4 is to offer precisely the same ABI as the old version, and share the same .so major version. Please submit a but report to bugs.freedesktop.org and supply as many details as you muster, including the distribution and version of the other libraries in the system. Also useful would be a stack trace of where your applications are crashing. It may well depend on the fonts you have present on your system or the .so version of FreeType that you have, or some other unknown variable. -keith -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
