BZ#1914716 [abrt] fontconfig: FcCacheFini(): fc-cat killed by SIGABRT
User Icon mitradranirban commented & provided feedback a year ago

I get core dump followed by fc-cat: fccache.c:807: FcCacheFini: Assertion `fcCacheChains[i] == NULL' failed. Aborted (core dumped) in my f34

User Icon tagoh commented & provided feedback a year ago

With this update? is it reproducible? how? please provide more information on it. thanks.

User Icon mitradranirban commented & provided feedback a year ago

Actually the command gives lots of output on terminal about every font and character range present and at the end gives this message. fccache.c:807: FcCacheFini: Assertion `fcCacheChains[i] == NULL' failed. Aborted (core dumped) It may be the intended behaviour

That sounds like there are some cache files causing this. this assertion means there is some memory leaks. the assertion shouldn't be happened. please add some information on that bug. We need to investigate the problem. please try to figure out which the fonts directory fc-cat asserts. you can try fc-cat /usr/share/fonts say. if it fails, try to dig it down such as fc-cat /usr/share/fonts/blahblahblah. if no assertion happens, it may fails at /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1, /usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF, /usr/local/share/fonts, ~/.fonts, and/or ~/.local/share/fonts.

Thank you for your help.

These directories do not exist in my f34-KDE Plasma. The generated text file lists all fonts in my system with their details

Sorry but that doesn't help. can you try with fc-cat /path/to/fontdir one by one? That would be best if it is reproducible here but if not, I need a cache file which is reproducible this issue.

Well, I tried to install F34 from Live and make sure if I have the latest packages installed. then, I ran fc-cat /usr/local/share/fonts. I can see the assertion happened. After confirming the problem, I followed the above steps of the dnf command to install the updating package. then, tried it again. no assertions.

So I confirmed the issue was fixed by updates. please make sure again if you have fontconfig-2.13.94-5.fc34 installed. thanks.

I installed the update again sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --advisory=FEDORA-2022-1b9895f2c2 Now I am seeing $ fc-cat /usr/local/share/fonts /usr/local/share/fonts: No such file or directory Probably the install was not proper last time
