Public bug reported:
I installed ferret-vis, and started it with the command ferret_c. Then
this happens:
yes? use levitus_climatology
yes? sh data
currently SET data sets:
1> /usr/share/ferret-vis/data/levitus_climatology.cdf (default)
name title I J K L
TEMP TEMPERATURE 1:360 1:180 1:20 ...
SALT SALINITY 1:360 1:180 1:20 ...
yes? shade salt[k=1]
*** NOTE: Fonts directory is undefined. Check the Ferret environment.
**ERROR: file undefined or not found: fondat.dat
Ferret crashes, I get returned to the bash prompt. However, the file head
${FER_FONTS}/fondat.dat is present and seems OK. Therefore I did not expect
this error message (and crash).
The problem does not occur when I download Ferret from the upstream
website and following http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/downloads
/ferret-installation-and-update-guide
I installed the latest ferret-vis from 'artful' but I'm using Ubuntu
16.04 (xenial). The reason was this and other problems with previous
version (both installed from the official repositories on the respective
Debian and Ubuntu releases): https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
