[Bug 1375819] [NEW] gnome-font-viewer freezes up itself or the X session

 

Public bug reported:

4) What happened instead
When I open gnome-font-viewer by clicking on font file (tried on TTF and PFB) it sometimes locks up. Then nothing can be done within the window, but the rest of X session works. However sometimes the whole X session freezes, only mouse cursor moves. It can be worked around by switching to tty1 and killall'ing gnome-font-viewer.
