Hi, with CVs from today (2005-01-11), I'm able to trigger an easy crash with fc-cat. To reproduce : make sure you have an empty sub-directory in your fonts path rm -rf /var/cache/fontconfig/* xterm -fa sans fc-cat ~/.fonts.cache-2 fc-cat will crash with the following stacktrace, when trying to print info for the empty directory : fc-cat: printing global cache contents for dir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mdk Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0xb7ed1a6b in FcConfigAddFontDir (config=0x0, d=0x0) at fccfg.c:388 388 return FcStrSetAddFilename (config->fontDirs, d); (gdb) bt #0 0xb7ed1a6b in FcConfigAddFontDir (config=0x0, d=0x0) at fccfg.c:388 #1 0x0804a19c in FcDirCacheConsume (fd=7, dir=0xbf82dae7 "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mdk", set=0x8051008, config=0x0) at ../src/fccache.c:972 #2 0x0804bbea in main (argc=2, argv=0xbf830bf4) at fc-cat.c:205 #3 0xb7bcbe40 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6 #4 0x08049a61 in _start () at ../sysdeps/i386/elf/start.S:119 I'm not sure how to fix this cleanly : either handle null config in FcConfigAddFontDir nicely or prevent the call in FcDirCacheConsume. -- Frederic Crozat <fcrozat@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Mandriva _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
