Severity: grave

*** Please type your report below this line ***


Dear Maintainer,

Fontforge segfaults after a few seconds (input beyond the startup screen
impossible, but for the segfault, no interaction is needed) on my Debian
testing machine - gdb gives this:

Starting program: /usr/bin/fontforge
