[Bug 226101] [NEW] cache of fonts causes firefox to crash

[Richard Wall]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Copying of Windows fonts to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msfonts then cache with the following command
fc-cache -f -v
causes Firefox 3 Beta 5 to fail with the following error
Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'height'.  Declaration dropped.

Line: 1
Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'width'.  Declaration dropped.

Line: 1
Deletion of /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msfonts solves the problem.
I did not have this problem with Gutsy 7.10 and Firevox 2
