Details
After pacman -Syu, which included upgrade to
freetype2-2.2.1-2.pkg.tar.gz
foobillard 3.0a-1 started from an xterm crashes immediately at starting, the foobillard window vanishes, and control returns to the xterm, leaving the font-related error message: "FT_Load_Glyph:error#6" The crash always happens, in the same way, with the same message. After "pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/freetype2-2.1.10-3.pkg.tar.gz", foobillard runs normally again. I can make the problem appear and disappear by switching between the two versions of freetype2. This is a fresh installation from the 0.7.1 CD, done only a couple of weeks ago. NVidia 3DForce MX4000Twin, nvidia driver, TwinView enabled glxgears runs fine and fast with either freetype version. I read on http://freetype.sourceforge.net/freetype2/freetype-2.2.0.html that some X apps might have problems with this new version of freetype. I'm not an X developer, so I don't know what else to check. I hope someone can help sort this out; I will miss my foobillard breaks if foobillard's broke. TIA for your help. |
This task depends upon
foobillard: ft_load_glyph:error#6
