Package: libfontconfig1 Version: 2.4.1-2 Severity: important
When attempting to print in either Firefox, Epiphany, and Galeon they all crash. This crash occured in both Firefox, and Galeon after printing two times in sequence. While, in Epiphany it only required one attempt to print to get it to crash. After installing firefox debug symbols and running firefox in gdb I soon found that the FcCharSetDestroy() function provided by /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1 was causing it as represented by the following snippet from a backtrace in gdb: #0 0xa7813d17 in FcCharSetDestroy () from /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1 #1 0x081e5826 in ~nsFontMetricsPS (this=0x9318410) at nsFontMetricsPS.cpp:111 #2 0x081e33a8 in nsFontMetricsPS::Release (this=0xa76d0414) at nsFontMetricsPS.cpp:135 #3 0x088de065 in nsFontCache::Flush (this=0x94b3348) at nsDeviceContext.cpp:715 Given that I had a strong assumption something had changed in libfontconfig1 from version 2.3.2-7 and 2.4.1-2 I reverted the libfontconfig1, fontconfig, and fontconfig-config packages to version 2.3.2-7 and when I print in Firefox, Epiphany, and Galeon there is NO longer an segfault issue. I reverted all 3 packages due to dependencies between them. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages libfontconfig1 depends on: ii fontconfig-config 2.4.1-2 generic font configuration library ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3.3 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfreetype6 2.2.1-5 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime libfontconfig1 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Andrew De Ponte Contact Info ------------ AIM Nick: HUNNYnNUTTS JabberID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Current Open Source Projects ---------------------------- Zaurus Synchronization REPository (a.k.a.
