Qt: 4.4.3
KDE: 4.1.3 (KDE 4.1.3)
Okular: 0.7.3
poppler (and poppler-qt) 0.10.0
freetype2 2.3.7
on ArchLinux x86_64

Here I can reproduce it. 
Seems related to poppler.

Program received signal SIGFPE, Arithmetic exception.

Comment 2 Albert Astals Cid 2008-11-28 20:32:52 UTC
Related to poppler? I see it crashing in freetype eh ;-)

Works for me using poppler 0.10.1 and freetype either 2.3.5-1ubuntu4.8.04.1 or compiled from cvs
Comment 3 Dario Andres 2008-11-28 21:01:59 UTC
You're right :-P 
Updating poppler to 0.10.1 didn't solve the issue.

May be related to 
http://www.mail-archive.com/freetype-devel@nongnu.org/msg02803.html
(Regression Crash between freetype 2.3.5 and 2.3.7 / cff_parse_real(), seems to be related to GCC optimizations).

Helge, what freetype2 version do you have?
Comment 4 Dario Andres 2008-11-28 21:10:42 UTC
After recompiling freetype 2.3.7 (after unsetting CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS), I can't reproduce this bug anymore. So it seems to be fault of a GCC optimization on freetype2 2.3.7 :)
Comment 5 Helge Hielscher 2008-11-29 00:09:24 UTC
# rpm -qa|grep freetype
libfreetype6-2.3.7-1plf2009.0
freetype-1.3.1-29mdv2009.0
freetype-tools-1.3.1-29mdv2009.0
libfreetype6-devel-2.3.7-1plf2009.0
Comment 6 Brad Hards 2008-11-29 09:47:24 UTC
Dario: did you rebuild the package with different options, or do a clean build from upstream sources?
Comment 7 Brad Hards 2008-11-29 09:49:29 UTC
Three Okular bugs, all involving SIGFPE, perhaps all in freetype:
#170427
#176304
#176320
Comment 8 Dario Andres 2008-11-29 14:05:46 UTC
Brad:
My distribution (ArchLinux) uses precompiled binaries (compiled with "-O2 -pipe")
But we can compile ourselves the distribution packages (it uses a BSD-port like system), and thus changing some compile options and so on.
I have compiled freetype2 (2.3.7) from source disabling the GCC options ("unset CFLAGS", seting CFLAGS="-g" ) to check the information I found about this bug (the link in comment 3). Then, I installed my own source-build package to overwrite the original freetype package. And the bug seems to be gone. I could even read the PDF :).
Is that what you were asking for? If not, just ask me again :)

I have only recompiled kdegraphics after updating my poppler packages to 0.10.1. But this wasn't neccesary to do after updating my freetype2 package.
Comment 9 Brad Hards 2008-11-29 23:46:09 UTC
Dario: I was trying to figure out whether it could be caused by some patches applied to freetype (Ubuntu / Debian has 107K diff applied, most of which looks harmless, but I didn't do a full check), or whether it is more likely a compiler problem. Sounds like the compiler optimisations might be the issue.

What gcc version is this with?
Comment 10 Dario Andres 2008-11-29 23:56:54 UTC
Here: I'm using gcc (GCC) 4.3.2

Comment 13 Pino Toscano 2009-01-19 10:44:52 UTC
Albert, Brad: is this problem strictly freetype's, or how it is used within poppler?

Okular crash file

This is the crash report I got when trying to browse a PFD file with okular.

This is an old crash in the Poppler library (that has nothing to do with this bug report); please update your Poppler.
Comment 16 Albert Astals Cid 2009-01-19 19:46:41 UTC
Strictly freetype as far as i know.
Comment 17 Pino Toscano 2009-01-24 15:39:11 UTC
As seen in various comments, this bug belongs either to freetype, or to gcc itself.
Thus closing it as UPSTREAM.
