If Pango fails to correctly substitute values in the FcConfig, it
could potentially mean that it's passed with some fields
uninitialized to Fontconfig. That could explain why the error is not
reproducible; the value of "color" could be a random uninitialized
boolean variable. But I'm not sure yet.
Colin, is your Ubuntu system up-to-date ?
Who knows, if the bug's in Pango, it might already have been fixed.
Try "sudo apt upgrade libpango1.0-0".
I generally keep my system current, and libpango is at 1.0-0 already.
Just as a reminder: the error is reliably reproducible on my system, so
the challenge seems to be isolating the difference between yours and mine.
Cheers,
Colin
