 existed in the font list, but when I asked for it there was nothing.
 I may crash soon.
Segmentation fault

Is there any way to fix this?


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I have tried both the most recent version from the Fontforge website (http://fontforge.sourceforge.net), fontforge-20090408 and the version in the repositories, fontforge-20090224.


How reproducible: It happens every time, no matter what choice you make at the prompt.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type "fontforge" into the command line
2.
3.
  
Actual results: Fontforge encountered a "Segmentation error."


Expected results: Fontforge should have opened a font or created a new one.
