[Bug 817290] Re: Fontforge crashes when control is pressed

[JoseLuisTriana]

This bug affects me in Ubuntu precise, I can't do anything because this
thing crashes as the primary description.

apt-cache policy fontforge
fontforge:
  Instalados: 0.0.20110222-4ubuntu1
  Candidato:  0.0.20110222-4ubuntu1
  Tabla de versión:
 *** 0.0.20110222-4ubuntu1 0
        500 http://mx.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

And is not a font file that produces the crash, it crashes for me with a
new file.
