Bug Description
Reproducible crash (tested on Ubuntu and Xubuntu) or freezing of application during ISO testing of a live-session.
Application will crash if there is an attempt to close it or scroll through fonts. On one occasion my laptop was rendered unusable when Firefox was launched while trying to report the crash to Launchpad.
After the bug report has been sent gnome-font-viewer will freeze when automatically restarted. No fonts are displayed.
Work around
-----------
gnome-font-viewer appears to start correctly when started from the command line of my Ubuntu 20.04 installation. Then subsequent attempts to start the program succeed when started from the dock or the Application Overview.
I have found that this work around wasn't necessary when using Xubuntu 20.04.
