           Summary: bitmap-fangsongti-fonts is broken, causes freeze with
                    100% CPU usage
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 13
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: medium
          Priority: low
         Component: bitmap-fonts
        AssignedTo: psatpute(a)redhat.com
        ReportedBy: redhat(a)icydog.net
         QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
                CC: pnemade(a)redhat.com,

                    psatpute(a)redhat.com
    Classification: Fedora


Description of problem:
When bitmap-fangsongti-fonts is installed, certain programs fail to start
without any output on the console or in the GUI and eat 100% CPU.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bitmap-fonts-compat-0.3-16.fc13.noarch
bitmap-fangsongti-fonts-0.3-16.fc13.noarch

How reproducible: perfect


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install the two packages above from standard repositories (I don't think the
empty compat package is required)
2. Install Skype 2.1.0.81 from skype.com
3. Attempt to run Skype

Actual results: 100% CPU usage, no Skype window appears, no console output

Expected results: Skype opens and displays a window.

1. Install the two packages above from standard repositories (I don't think the
empty compat package is required)
2. Install Flash using the instructions for standard 32-bit Flash with
nspluginwrapper ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Flash#32_bit_wrapped_version )
3. Try to view something on Youtube using Firefox

Actual results: Where the youtube video should be, there is a gray area
instead. Firefox is completely unresponsive for about 30 seconds. After this
time, the video still doesn't work but Firefox recovers.


Expected results: A video plays


Additional info: In both repros above, one of the last lines of strace output
included "/usr/share/fonts/bitmap/fangsongti24.pcf.gz" and in fact removing the
packages above solved both problems.
