Package: libpango1.0-0
Version: 1.20.4-1
Severity: important

I have random crashs on a program using pango because some memory
allocated with g_slice_new() is freed with g_free().

Workaournd:
export G_SLICE=always-malloc

I opened a bug upstream and attached a patch that applies to the version
of the Debian package:
