Dear Maintainer,

I was trying to have some TTF fonts available for PDF generation.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?

Adding the following block at the beginning (global) of my python class:
import reportlab.rl_config
reportlab.rl_config.warnOnMissingFontGlyphs = 0
from reportlab.pdfbase import pdfmetrics
from reportlab.pdfbase.ttfonts import TTFont
pdfmetrics.registerFont(TTFont('LiberationSN',   'LiberationSansNarrow-
Regular.ttf'))

* What was the outcome of this action?

A crash.  So, I add a line where it seems logical into:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/reportlab/pdfbase/ttfonts.py

Log line #165:
print("LOG ======>>>>>> REPORTLAB_ttfonts.py L#165: TTF file = %s" % fn)

Here is the crash log (there are 2 calls instead of only one, and the 2nd's
empty, which lead me to think it is a loop PB ):
$ python pxpdf_UTILISE_REPORTLAB_ET_AUTOMATISE_LES_CADRES-
TABLES___COPIE_de_TRAVAIL.py
LOG ======>>>>>> REPORTLAB_ttfonts.py L#165: TTF file = LiberationSansNarrow-
Regular.ttf

    raise TTFError('Can\'t open file "%s"' % fn)

* What outcome did you expect instead?
No crash, the wanted TTF available, cigar, Cognac and rollmops.
