Package: libfreetype6
Version: 2.2.1-2
Severity: normal
When making a call to FT_Load_Char with the FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO or
FT_LOAD_MONOCHROME
load flags certain character codes cause a return of error code 6 (invalid
argument).
The character code causing the error seems to depend on the font file used.
For example:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial.ttf fails on character code 32
(space character)
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSans.ttf fails on characher code 13
Downgrading to 2.1.7 of libfreetype removes the problem.
See the attached file for an example of C code that exhibits the bug.
