Aborted (core dumped)
On building xfstt from source, it gives the following warning:
In file included from /usr/include/string.h:428,
from xfstt.cc:55:
In function ‘char* strncpy(char*, const char*, size_t)’,
inlined from ‘int ttSyncAll(int)’ at xfstt.cc:316:
/usr/include/bits/string3.h:122: warning: call to char*
__builtin___strncpy_chk(char*, const char*, long unsigned int, long unsigned
int) will always overflow destination buffer
The issue is quite obvious.
In src/xfstt.cc line 316, we have
strncpy(info.magic, "TTFNINFO", 8);
but in src/xfstt.h line 53, we have
char magic[4]; // == TTFN
It cores on strncpy'ing 8 into 4. Not sure if we have other systems
that can do it, but it won't work on mine.
Version of libc6-dev is 2.9-20ubuntu2 (AMD64).
I may still have other issues in building the font database, but xfstt
cores is the first obstacle.

P. C.
