| a hidden folder : ~/home/.fonts
| That folder all has symbolic links to the actual font files located in
my fonts repository folder.
|
| 2 Problems:
| 1) Some of the actual font files had become corrupted. (Specifically
tahoma.ttf and trebuchet.ttf)
| Solution: restored good files from a Windows machine.
|
| 2) Some of the symbolic links to a few fonts no longer worked because
the repository container folder had been renamed (none of these fonts
were causing errors in the output window though, but probably would have
at a later date.)
| Solution: renamed the repository back to what it was so all the
originals fonts can be properly located.
|
| cheers.

Can everyone please test the steps Ivan listed, I think he is seeing a
different bug but would like to make sure. The errors you are gettting
should be fixed in updated system. If the above steps dont help please
let me know and test to see if its been fixed on your system please.
