--- Comment #5 from Kevin Fenzi kevin@tummy.com 2008-10-10 14:38:33 EDT --- So, I am confused. How is this different than bug 450709 ?
My understanding of this bug:
- The ibm type1 fonts were removed. - The cache files were not regenerated - Fontforge tries to use that font and dies because it is not really available.
Granted that fontforge shouldn't crash when a font isn't available, but the X server shouldn't lie to it and tell it that it has a font when it does not.
So, doesn't regenerating your font cache files (as mentioned in bug 450709 ) fix this issue for you?
Or is this somehow another issue?

--- Comment #8 from Nils Philippsen nphilipp@redhat.com 2009-02-19 04:31:25 EDT --- Reopening because of the fontforge instability issue.
Regenerating the font cache files ("fc-cache /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1") doesn't help as the missing font files are referenced in the xorg-x11-fonts-Type1 package, in the files /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1/fonts.dir and .../fonts.scale. Removing that package helps of course for running fontforge, but then you're missing some fonts you may want to have.

--- Comment #9 from Nils Philippsen nphilipp@redhat.com 2009-02-19 05:19:38 EDT --- I just installed the font package again, and it doesn't crash anymore. See my comment on bug 450709 re: mkfontdir/mkfontscale issues.
So in order to test this I guess you would have to install and old version of xorg-x11-fonts-Type1 that contained the IBM fonts with non-open source licenses and the update to the current version.

I can bring the issue up upstream and see if they can come up with a fix.

--- Comment #14 from Kevin Fenzi kevin@tummy.com 2009-09-03 12:14:46 EDT --- It doesn't look like this is going to be fixable...
I talked with upstream and the problem here is that if they just exit when they see that they can't get a font, that would hit cases where people could save their work before it crashes.
From upstream:
"If you think you can fix it, please do. As you point out it is not really my bug, and as I have been unable to fix it in 10 years I have given up."
So, I guess the answer here is to make sure our font cache information is accurate? Can I go ahead and close this now? Or would someone here like to take a stab at patching it? :)
