#157 CDE crashing in Debian 12

[Ogis]

I'm using Debian 12.1 and I compiled CDE from git using the instructions on the wiki. When I first started the system, everything was fine. I changed the decoration theme. When I logged out and logged back in, I decided to take another look at the style manager. When I clicked on the style manager, the CDE simply crashed. After logging in again, when I clicked on the exit button, no confirmation window appeared and CDE simply logged out. I decided to remove the .dt folder. After removing this folder, everything started working as it should. But after logging out and logging back in, what I wrote earlier came up....All I can say is a very disappointing experience….

P.S.

I also tried CDE, which can be installed from the office package archive. I am talking about Sparky Linux 7.0.1, which is based on Debian 12 version. Sparky Linux 7.1 in KVM, the same problem as I described. CDE crashed.....
The error message looks like this

XmeRenderTableGetDefaultFont() failed, trying a fixed font

I couldn't find any more error messages in log...

Try latest master... A fix went in that might address this issue.

Hello.
I want to thank you for quickly fixing this bug and specifically for the patch author hyousatsu. Yes, patch fixed the problem with crashes. I tested CDE from latest master on Debian 12.1 "Bookworm" and on Devuan Daedalus 5.0. Everything works perfectly as it should. Sincere thanks again.
