as I suspected, the offending files was missing some optional fields; freetype2 handled that nicely, but _imagingft module didn't expect the fields to be NULL. here's a tentative patch: $ svn diff _imagingft.c Index: _imagingft.c =================================================================== --- _imagingft.c (revision 3345) +++ _imagingft.c (working copy) @@ -422,10 +422,11 @@ /* attributes */ if (!strcmp(name, "family")) - return PyString_FromString(self->face->family_name); + return PyString_FromString(self->face->family_name ? + self->face->family_name : ""); if (!strcmp(name, "style")) - return PyString_FromString(self->face->style_name); - + return PyString_FromString(self->face->style_name ? + self->face->style_name : ""); if (!strcmp(name, "ascent")) return PyInt_FromLong(PIXEL(self->face->size->metrics.ascender)); if (!strcmp(name, "descent")) (might be a better idea to return None in this case, but the above will at least prevent the crash). </F> _______________________________________________ Image-SIG maillist - Image-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/image-sig
