Firebird crashs when trying to load the given page from the given URL. It
doesn't write/send any error message. Nothing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on the link 'Extensions' on the home page of Firebird
Actual Results:  
Firebird contacts with the server texturizer.net and then closes itself without
any message.
WFM Firebird 0.7 Windows 2003
Can you do a clean install with a fresh profile and disable all extensions?
Works for me on 20031109 build on WinXP. 
Please try to reinstall, create a fresh profile (delete the old .phoenix-folder)
and try iz without any additional extensions and themes.
QA Contact: bugzilla
Please all note that the problem is reported for Linux, not Windows!

I will try to delete the phoenix folder and try again. But I have no extensions
installed nor any themes.
Did delete phoenix folder and retry without success...
I have isolated the problem on the GTK2/XFT version for Linux.

The problem does not occur when using the other version.
I have finally pinpointed the cause of this bug.

It is (at least in this case) due to the font named 'lucida sans unicode' which
is a composed name (multiple words). This makes Firebird crashes.

I have tried with quotes " or ' . Same result. It just won't take it.

This should be fixed quickly now. Could you confirm.

Thanks

This is working fine on my system.  Odds are it's a dup of one of the mostfreq
xft bugs.  What distro and version are you running firebird on?
Linux 2.4.22 on RedHat 9 with XFree86 Version 4.3.0
Cannot duplicate here.
Linux kernel 2.6.1 Glibc<CVS> NPTL GTK+2 XFT
CVS 0.8+ FireBird as of Jan 21, 04
reporter, can you do the following and post the result here?

$ fc-list 'Lucida Sans Unicode' file family



[flop@omega flop]$ fc-list 'Lucida Sans Unicode' file family
/usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType/l_10646.ttf: Lucida Sans Unicode
