Public bug reported:

When starting font-manager it queries the installed font files. Until
16.04 this process has been fairly fast. Since 16.04 it takes up to 20
minutes, and looks like the app died: loading bar gets stuck and
switching the window back from the background shows an empty window.

2 ways to reproduce:

a)
- launch font-manager
expected result: font-manager loads quickly and is ready for operation
result: font-manager faints a crash but is in fact alright after 20 minutes querying the installed font files

b)
- once launched, install new fonts
- press "reload now" when prompted
expected result: font-manager loads quickly and is ready for operation
result: font-manager faints a crash but is in fact alright after 20 minutes querying the installed font files
