more notes: rebuilding ttmkfdir doesnt fix anything rebuilding freetype-2.x does not fix anything just downgrading to 6.7.0-r2 and segfaults stop

Also on sparc. Adding sparc to CC list.
Try downgrading ttmkfdir from 3.0.9-r1 to 3.0.9.
I have the same problem (ttmkfdir segfaults) here while emerging xorg-x11-6.7.99.902 with ttmkfdir-3.0.9-r1 I downgraded to ttmkfdir-3.0.9 and the message error is now different : gzip: stdout: Broken pipe /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-x11/xorg-x11-6.7.99.902.ebuild: line 1126: 11467 Erreur de segmentation LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:${ROOT}/usr/X11R6/lib" ${ROOT}/usr/X11R6/bin/ttmkfdir -x 2 -e ${ROOT}/usr/share/fonts/encodings/encodings.dir -o ${x}/fonts.scale -d ${x} I get this for these paths : /usr/share/fonts/corefonts , /usr/share/fonts/kochi-substitute and /usr/share/fonts/TTF

Delete /usr/share/fonts/encodings/large/cns* and /usr/share/fonts/encodings/suneu-greek*. Then run: /ttmkfdir -x 2 -e /usr/share/fonts/encodings/encodings.dir \ -o /usr/share/fonts/TTF/fonts.scale -d /usr/share/fonts/TTF
sorry. ttmkfdir, not /ttmkfdir.
That works for me, thanks for your help.
All it took was: 1) Run strace, see which encoding it was on when it hit the segfault 2) Remove encoding 3) Repeat until there are no more segfaults
Worked for me on sparc.
that's a work around but in reality, this sucker shouldnt be segfaulting ... especially when people (like me) know nothing about font caching ... i have no idea what files are safe to delete and what files are generated on the fly ... also, punting the cache files made my ttmkdir stop segfaulting
This is the UNDEFINE that makes ttmkfdir segfault, maybe the number are wrong or something like this. See this cvs entry from xorg : http://freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xc/fonts/encodings/large/cns11643-1.enc?rev=1.2&root=xorg&view=log unfortunately i cannot access the bugzilla from freedesktop at the moment...
The bug that made this encoding into xorg : http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=304 those encoding seem to be used only in solaris...
I've committed the workaround. If anyone has a better fix (such as one that allows us to fix the encodings and keep them), please add it to this bug and reopen the bug.
Created attachment 38208 [details, diff] correct some encoding from xorg This patch correct the 'UNDEFINE' statement from some encoding, since they shouldn't be greater than the 'SIZE' of the encoding.
Created attachment 38215 [details, diff] patch for ttmkfdir, it now checks the bound, and we avoid segfault I thought it could be good to correct ttmkfdir too, since i don't know if the incriminated encodings were valid or not.
*** Bug 62098 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
um, who closed this bug
Can't be an exact dup, probably different encodings causing it to segfault. Someone will need to run the same test I detailed in comment #12 to find the broken ones. Then they can be either fixed or temporarily deleted pending fixes as the first three were.
after doing like #12 said, I the encodings causing the segfault were: large/cns11643-1.enc.gz large/cns11643-2.enc.gz large/cns11643-3.enc.gz suneu-greek.enc.gz Hmm.. and they seem to be all in the xorg cvs commit...
fixed in 904
