Package: fontforge
Version: 1:20230101~dfsg-1
Dear fontforge maintainers,
fontforge-nox crashes during `Open()` when run on the femkaklaver font.
```
fontforge -script $CURDIR/debian/clear-fstype.pe $CURDIR/femkeklaver.ttf
Program root: /usr
Copyright (c) 2000-2023. See AUTHORS for Contributors.

make[1]: *** [debian/rules:7: execute_before_dh_auto_build] Segmentation
fault (core dumped)
```
https://salsa.debian.org/fonts-team/fonts-femkeklaver/-/jobs/3918430
What is strange is that this crash is observable and reproducible only
inside pbuilder or lxc containers (for example on salsa). When run from
the command line the script succeeds as expected.
Regards,
