Description Radek Bíba 2008-09-13 09:23:49 UTC
Description of problem:
I tried to launch foobillard from the menu, but nothing happened. An attempt to run it from a command line failed too, but help message was printed, alas it didn't provide any explanation of the failure. Strace helped:

...
open("/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
write(2, "another error code means that th"..., 100another error code means that the font file could not e opened or read, or simply that it is broken
) = 100
rt_sigaction(SIGINT, {SIG_DFL}, {0x1c73b0, [INT], SA_RESTART}, 8) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGTERM, {SIG_DFL}, {0x1c73b0, [TERM], SA_RESTART}, 8) = 0
...

When I installed dejavu-fonts, which provides the font file in question, foobillard was happy again (and so was I).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
foobillard-3.0a-6.fc8

How reproducible:
Always unless one has dejavu-fonts.

Additional info:
I guess the right thing to do here is to add Requires: dejavu-fonts.
