[Bug 965748] Re: compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in af_latin_hints_compute_edges()

[Sebastien Bacher]

Thank you for your bug report, that's not an unity bug, there are
similar bugs on other components,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=761100 is similar and
triagers there reassigned from the apps to pango, which seems a guess...

Reassigning to freetype guessing as well since that's where the segfault
happens but it could well be due to pango or something else

** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #761100

Title:
  compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in af_latin_hints_compute_edges()

Status in “freetype” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “freetype” package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Can't exactly tell how to reproduce.

  I have changed compiz scale plugin to initiate window picker in the
  bottom right and window picker for all windows in the top right
  corner.

  In addition left-clicking or right-clicking on the top edge switches
  desktop (desktop wall plugin) and I have changed to 3 desktops in one
  row.

  After those tweaks (as well as disabling global menus and adding a
  gnome menu button) I switched desktops and windows by moving mouse
  cursor and clicking. Then sometimes this crash occurs while switching
  windows and desktops but can't exactly tell under what exact
  circumstances.
