Bug#235763: [sparc] crash on startup

2004-03-14 Thread Jim Watson
The linux sparc testing package now loads OK to the stage of fonts bug 231831. The splashscreen with debian log has been observed and the initial window and menus are displayed. I used strace and found the offending font, after moving that away it stops at another. It seems many fonts are involved

Eike, it does not seem correct to me. The source csv file contains data such as 1.8526 The user does not know about that data, they only know what they see when it is imported. The original problem remains that this data 1.8526 is imported and displayed as a "date". For example with "Italian"
