I used linux-libertine as my default font everywhere and after the last upgrade a lot of my gtk apps crashed. Finally I found out that media-fonts/libertine-ttf-2.8.14 crashes e.g. xchat, gimp, gnumeric, abiword, pgadmin3 and others without tracable segfault. Even strace reported a plain segfault and nothing else. xchat: crash on editing usernames(nicks) gimp: crashes after splash image gnumeric: will not even start abiword: crash when main menu - German: Bearbeiten - (next to 'File') is clicked and refuses to open any file with the file dialog pgadmin3: does not start when being started as user, works as root taxbird: crashes somewhere when sending documents(very nasty…) Found something on tty7, (taxbird:2943): CRITICAL **: global error handler called, damn No backtrace available. ERROR: Unbound variable: <?xml Exeption - gtkam works w/o any errors All my qt apps work, just my homepage shows doubled fonts at the end of each line when displayed in qt-demobrowser. I defined linux libertine as font there and on my homepage(changed the font now there). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install media-fonts/libertine-2.8.14 2.start any of the apps described above 3.deinstall libertine and the errors disappear Actual Results: After unmerging libertine-ttf all the errors were gone.
Created attachment 161652 [details] this is the output of paludis --info
This is due to having <x11-libs/pango-1.20.4 installed. You can solve it by ... whatever magic you paludis users do to pull an ~arch package. I've updated the ebuild to reflect this incompatibility and prodded the Gnome herd to get x11-libs/pango-1.20.5 stabilized.
(In reply to comment #2) 'we' paludis users put it like 'you' whatever users in the keywords file. And thanks for fixing it!
