Ubuntu 12.04 freezes when installing a new font from the default GUI application

[Gabriele N. Tornetta]

Description: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
Release: 12.04

Every time I try to install a new font the system become unresponsive and needs hard reboot. So to reproduce this bug, download a new font, open it with the default application and click on the Install button.

I don't get the problem by downloading the extra Edubuntu fonts (using precise).

Gabriele, we are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Presumably this problem was a one time occurrence and/or is no longer an issue? Can this bug report now be closed?

If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

Thanks Gabriele. Closing by marking "Invalid" as issue was never confirmed.
