kubuntu feisty - kfont crashes when installing personal fonts

[TheMarco]

Binary package hint: kdebase

I dropped tahoma & tahoma bold in my empty 'fonts:/Personal' folder from inside konqueror & kfont crashed in the middle of registering the fonts.

Possibly related to bug 69631?

Moved the two ttf files to ~ then right clicked actions>install>Personal & everything just worked fine.
