Hello - I am the author. This crash is a mystery. If I could see the exact error-report it would help. Unicode errors are a PITA and I am not the best at figuring them out.

Also:
Please use the bug system on https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/fontypython/ rather than launchpad.

Duh! I just saw the Traceback.txt file -- that contains the error. Sorry.

Still not sure why this is happening. If the user could move to the latest version of Fonty, perhaps things will magically go away. Otherwise, I would ask them to install a utf-8 locale before they run fonty.

Fonty has moved-on. Please visit https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/fontypython/ to get the latest version. I can't fix this problem backwards for lack of time. The version in the Ubuntu repos should be 0.4.2.x these days and 0.4.3 (Oct 2009) is almost ready for release.
