Alan, For me with Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) scripts/comprehensive_test.sh fails. Compile all goes fine, but the test of the C examples with the pdf driver fails at example 24 with ERROR: error_no=1050, detail_no=0 ERROR in haru library I'm assuming this is a libharu issue since no-one else has run into it. A quick google search suggests this error is "An invalid font-size was set." For reference this is version 2.2.1-1.1. Alan, what version are you running? I'll disable the pdf driver and try again.
