AW: [Swftools-common] pdf2swf only works for root

[Geisser, Michael]

So here is what I got.

> ldd swf2pdf 
  libjpeg.so.62 => /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 (0x0000002a9566e000)
  libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x0000002a95790000)
  libfreetype.so.6 => /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 (0x0000002a958a5000)
  libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x0000002a95a33000)
  libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x0000002a95c10000)
  libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x0000002a95d93000)
  libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x0000002a95ea0000)
  /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000002a95556000)

This is for root and non-root.

The -vvv starts to differ when the first font is included.

Root:
        VERBOSE Updating font to LWBHYX+Tele-Grotesk-Halb-2449-0
        VERBOSE =========== Tele-Grotesk-Halb (ID:2449,0) ==========

        TRACE   26 glyphs.

        DEBUG   |   Maxascii: 253

Non-Root:
        VERBOSE Updating font to LWBHYX+Tele-Grotesk-Halb-2449-0
        VERBOSE =========== Tele-Grotesk-Halb (ID:2449,0) ==========

        TRACE   0 glyphs.
        DEBUG   Font LWBHYX+Tele-Grotesk-Halb-2449-0
        DEBUG   |   ID: 5
        DEBUG   |   Version: 2
        DEBUG   |   Name: LWBHYX+Tele-Grotesk-Halb-2449-0
        DEBUG   |   Numchars: 0
        DEBUG   |   Maxascii: 0


Somehow there are no glyphs and chars found.
The root version is then continuing with listing / adding glyphs, then 
rendering then drawing.
The non-root versions immediately renders and starts to complain like this
ERROR   Invalid charid 50 for font (0 characters)

This is pretty weird. The best explanation I can come up with right now
is that pdf2swf might be linking against a different freetype library
when you're root- do you run pdf2swf in a chroot environment?

Could you try running "ldd pdf2swf" with both root and non-root?

Also, if you run pdf2swf with the "-vvv" option, at which point exactly
do the two log outputs (root and non-root) start to differ?

Schöne Grüsse
