I don't think you are seeing bug #5057.

I think you're right.  I don't have any packages containing the MS fonts.

That is not a problem. But your version may be too old. At least your
problem is exactly what happens if your version of fontforge is too old.

I've just downloaded and installed the latest RPM available from fontforge.sourceforge.net and I can still reproduce the problem.

The creator of bug #5057 reports that the problem occurs because he has a package installed that already includes the MS fonts.  It's an unconfirmed bug.  I don't have any package including these fonts, but my "C:\Windows\Fonts" directory is still empty.  I think I may be experiencing the same issue, but it's not because the fonts are found on the host.

What do you think?

Thank you for your help.
