Problem starting gimp 2.0.0

Hello,

I have a problem with gimp 2.0.0. I have compiled the software listed on www.gimp.org/unix/ and then gimp-2.0.0, all with no problems.

When I try to start gimp I get the followind error:

** (gimp:9612): WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Verdana 10 Speicherzugriffsfehler

I had this problem with the pre-Release of gimp (pre 2-4) and asked about the problem on this list, but with no solution.

Any help?

Frank

BTW: the same problem with gimp --no-fonts

I would suggest that this means;

a. the font has not installed correctly b. the file format is faulty

Unless you *desperately* need verdana 10, ignore the message. Alternatively, you may try reinstalling that font.

I believe ``Speicherzugriffsfehler'' is "bus error" or "segfault" or something similar, auf Deutsch, so it's going to be a little hard to ignore until the problem font is removed.
