Bug Description

This is what I found in terminal when I click "Install pog". Then, the cursors stays in "waiting" mode. No crash.

[Solved]

I created the folder ".fonts" in my home folder, and run again FontyPython.
Now the program installs the pogs with no problems whatsoever.

Not sure if it is the real reason, but for me it worked.
