Public bug reported:
When I open a "Save As" dialog using Terminus as default system font,
the dialog just hangs, becoming blank, and freezes the application
(Firefox, Thunderbird, VirtualBox are examples).
But if dconf is configured with, say, Ubuntu 11 as default font, the
dialog shows normally.
I think the bug could be in the filechooser gtk code, but I'm not sure of that.
I don't know in which of the gtk packages the filechooser stays, but
libgtk-3-common (hope that's it) is at 3.6.4-0ubuntu8.
I'm using Ubuntu 13.04
Steps to reproduce:
1 - Install the terminus font: # apt-get install xfonts-terminus
1 - Configure it as default:
# echo "[org/gnome/desktop/interface]"$'\n'"font-name='Terminus 13' "|
dconf load /
2 - Open Firefox "Save As" menu.
3 - Watch it freeze in blank disgrace.
To make it good again:
1 - Kill the freezed Firefox instance,
2 - # echo "[org/gnome/desktop/interface]"$'\n'"font-name='Ubuntu 11' "| dconf
load /
Or open dconf-editor, go to "org/gnome/desktop/interface" and change
"font-name".
