Hello,
For some reason, my codeblocks crashes frequently. I am using Ubuntu Dapper x86. I had previously used it on Fedora, and it worked okay then (although iirc I was using an April build, I'll try that and let you know if it resolves the problem).
This is what it outputs at the console before exiting:
codeblocks: cairo-ft-font.c:678: _cairo_ft_unscaled_font_set_scale: Assertion `error == 0' failed.
Aborted
I tried the June 29, 2006 build and got the same crash with the same error.
The crash seems to occur when I am opening a source or header file from one of the loaded projects. It occurs even when there is only one project loaded. It does not happen 100% of the time (but it happens often enough to make the ide unusable) and it is not always reproducible with the same file. I have tried using different fonts, it doesn't seem to have an effect.
Let me know if there is any information you would like that would help you in resolving the problem (if the problem is indeed codeblocks and not cairo :-P)
