Apparently so: $ /usr/lib/xscreensaver/xjack -font -alee-guseul-medium-r-normal--33-240-100-100-m-0-iso10646-1 Floating point exception $ > I assume there's something stupid about that font that makes it blow up. > No idea what, though.

The only printable ASCII character it contains is space: $ showttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/alee/Guseul.ttf [...] Format 4 (Windows unicode), 4256 segments Segment=0 unicode-start=000d end=000d range-offset=0 delta=65525 glyph-start=65538 gend=65538 Segment=1 unicode-start=0020 end=0020 range-offset=0 delta=65507 glyph-start=65539 gend=65539 Segment=2 unicode-start=203b end=203b range-offset=0 delta=57289 glyph-start=65540 gend=65540 [...] I vaguely remember a requirement for a truetype font to contain some ASCII superset, but I can't find anything like this in the Apple's TrueType Reference Manual. Also, /etc/defoma/hints/ttf-alee.hints seems to be incomplete, because it doesn't contain the UniCharset hint, but adding it by hand and reregistering the font doesn't seem to make a difference. I suspect that either ttf-alee or defoma may be buggy here. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
