Firefox (and all mozilla based) issues on Fedora

by z3n on Apr.02, 2009, under Linux Happyness

Problem:

when running firefox on fedora 9+ you get this errors:

(firefox:30077): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_get_qdata: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)’ failed

(firefox:30077): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_set_qdata: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)’ failed

(firefox:30077): Pango-CRITICAL **: pango_font_find_shaper: assertion `font != NULL’ failed

(firefox:30077): Pango-WARNING **: failed to find shape engine, expect ugly output. engine-type=’PangoRenderFc’, script=’latin’

(firefox:30077): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_get_qdata: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)’ failed

(firefox:30077): Pango-CRITICAL **: pango_font_describe: assertion `font != NULL’ failed
/usr/lib/firefox-3.0.8/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 30077 Segmentation fault

and it simply won’t start. For others, like seamonkey, it simply shows “Segmentation Fault”.

Solution:

yum install xorg-x11-font*
