I have no clue why that would be the case. Any chance you saved a package of your 6.8.0-r1? The only changes between the last 6.8.0-r1 and -r3 were a security patch to libXpm. I don't see any earlier cjk-related changes to -r1 in the ChangeLog. The fact that downgrading didn't fix things suggests it may have been something else upgraded around the same time. Unfortunately I have not any back-up of the old xorg installation. The packages I upgraded are in chronological order from nov 16 (no updates immediatly before Nov. 16th) as follows: media-libs/libsdl-1.2.7-r3 app-admin/sudo-1.6.7_p5-r2」 media-libs/a52dec-0.7.4-r3 x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r3 Would any of these have anything to do with unicode / CJK? And, s-jis per se seems not be the problem with segfaulting, though hotmail in japansese kills mozilla every time for unknown reason. -----------Excerpt from emerge.log:---------------- 1100639850: Started emerge on: Nov 16, 2004 22:17:30 1100639850: *** emerge sync 1100640757: >>> emerge (1 of 1) media-libs/libsdl-1.2.7-r3 to / 1100733250: Started emerge on: Nov 18, 2004 00:14:10 1100733250: *** emerge sync 1100733826: Started emerge on: Nov 18, 2004 00:23:46 1100733845: >>> emerge (1 of 1) app-admin/sudo-1.6.7_p5-r2 to / 1100734027: >>> emerge (1 of 1) media-libs/a52dec-0.7.4-r3 to / 1100768573: Started emerge on: Nov 18, 2004 10:02:53 1100768573: *** emerge --update --verbose xorg-x11 1100768573: >>> emerge (1 of 1) x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r3 to / 1100770162: ::: completed emerge (1 of 1) x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r3 to / 1100770162: *** Finished.

This bug is not reproduceable to me. I've just emerged xorg-x11-6.8.0-r3 (+bitmap-fonts +cjk +nls +pam) and mozilla-1.7.3 (+crypt +gnome +gtk2 +java +ldap +ssl), and they work flawlessly as expected. I can brouse UTF-8 pages (http://www.gentoo.gr.jp/) and SJIS page (http://www.hotmail.com). Matsuu, thanks for trying to reproduce this. Actually noticed right now that I can also view Japanese in unicode on www.gentoo.gr.jp (strange!), but not in for instance gmail.google.com or www.doblog.com Also, logging into Hotmail, segfaults mozilla 1.7.3, epiphany and firefox (same engine, I presume). Any clues as to where I should start looking? Reemerge something particular? Update: If I set LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 in a shell before executing mozilla in in that shell, the japanese character unicode problem in mozilla disappears and I am able to login to my old hotmail account without segfaults. I feel this ought to be due to a bug somewhere, but I don't know whose the bug should be (gkt? xorg? mozilla? <other software here?>. Anyway, since I've found a workaround for my immediate needs, I took the liberty to lower the severity. Cheers. Whose bug is this? Ideas welcome. I fixed this by removing every thing in /usr/share/fonts and before re-installing xorg (and kochi-substitute). Seems like it was a system specific font related bug, not likely reproducable by others so I vote for closing this bug. Regards, Andreas Thanks for looking into this. |
