Package: fontforge Version: 0.0.20080429-1 If I try to use FontForge to convert the attached tiny .sfd file into an SVG font, using the command line
fontforge -lang=ff -c 'Open($1); Generate($2);' test.sfd test.svg then fontforge terminates with a segfault, having opened test.svg for writing but not written any data to it. This occurs on a Debian Lenny machine on ordinary Intel x86. Running it under valgrind reports (after a lot of errors in PyObject_Free, which appear to be unrelated to the segfault inasmuch as they also occur in runs of fontforge which complete successfully): ==28251== Jump to the invalid address stated on the next line ==28251== at 0x3F: ??? ==28251== by 0x43785F8: (within /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x43797AF: WriteSVGFont (in /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42C4FF2: _DoSave (in /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42C6ADB: GenerateScript (in /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42DB993: (within /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42E48E5: (within /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42E0F2B: (within /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42E213D: (within /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42E231D: (within /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42E261D: (within /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== by 0x42E287B: (within /usr/lib/fontforge/libfontforge.so.1.0.0) ==28251== Address 0x3f is not stack'd, malloc'd or (recently) free'd which looks as if something has either trashed its stack or called through a corrupted function pointer. I tried debugging it myself, but was unable to reproduce the problem in a version of fontforge built with debugging information. Here are my installed version numbers of packages which are either listed in fontforge's dependencies or which provide a shared library listed by 'ldd fontforge': fontforge 0.0.20080429-1 libc6 2.7-18 libfreetype6 2.3.7-2+lenny1 libgif4 4.1.6-6 libice6 2:1.0.4-1 libjpeg62 6b-14 libpng12-0 1.2.27-2+lenny2 libsm6 2:1.0.3-2 libspiro0 20071029-2 libtiff4 3.8.2-11.2 libuninameslist0 0.0.20060907-2 libx11-6 2:1.1.5-2 libxau6 1:1.0.3-3 libxcb-xlib0 1.1-1.2 libxcb1 1.1-1.2 libxdmcp6 1:1.0.2-3 libxml2 2.6.32.dfsg-5+lenny1 python2.5 2.5.2-15 zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 Cheers, Simon -- Simon Tatham These are my opinions.
