Description hpa 2010-11-02 23:07:30 UTC
Version:           4.5 (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

kmymoney hangs after loading a file (the progress bar shows 100%) or creating a new file.
strace revealed that it is reading an empty config file, /etc/X11/fs/config over and over again.
On my gentoo system this file belongs to the package 
media-fonts/artwiz-fonts-2.4-r3
renaming/removing the file fixed the problem, putting a blank in it didn't.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
maybe having an empty "/etc/X11/fs/config" file could be enough, though I don't know why this file gets opened anyway!

Actual Results:  
kmymoney hangs as described above

Expected Results:  
kmymoney should run

OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.30.5
Compiler: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc 4.4.4 
file that caused trouble belonged to artwiz-fonts-2.4-r3

The mentioned file is the configuration file of the X Window System font server.  It supplies fonts to X Window System display servers.

Having it not configured but in use is a local configuration problem but not a KMyMoney problem.

It would be interesting to see, where the whole stack hangs. Start KMyMoney using gdb and interrupt it when it is in that loop. Use 'bt' to get a backtrace which you could attach to this message if you want.

this is the backtrace:
