Bug Description

Binary package hint: defoma

defoma-hints truetype /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msoffice97/*

When the above command is invoked in an Emacs buffer, it spits out an error for each font saying that the terminal cannot position the cursor, then does a segmentation fault (but I find no core dump).

I discovered that the crash happens when using non font files. I had a .gif and a cache file in the same directory, and when examining those defoma crashes.

Sorry for the delay.

With defoma 0.11.10-0.1 the bug is no more reproducible, so I guess the
issue has been solved.

Thank you.
