I encountered the same bug

I encountered the same bug and fixed it by commenting the line g15r_initCanvas(canvas); in g15macro.c on line number 922 in the following code section:

if (canvas != NULL) {
//g15r_initCanvas(canvas);
} else {
printf("Unable to initialise the libg15render canvas\nExiting\n");
return 1;
}

After doing this i recompiled g15macro and it works perfect now. I encountered the bug after a custom config was written to the hard-disk and have no clue why the bug occurs. I checked the parsing of the config file an all seemed fine.

My system is:
G15Daemon version 1.9.5.3 - Not Running
compiled with libg15 version 1.201
G15Macro version 1.0.3

On Ubuntu Lucid Linx 10.04

Re: G15Macro stopped working after Jaunty upgrade

g15macro should not crash due to freetype, as it doesn't even use it.
Could you check if packages relating to freetype where updated?
(Cause g15 things should not have been, there has not been any new releases for a long while)
I'm having similar freetype crashes, but I'm unsure if they're cause of freetype or due to libg15render..

Re: G15Macro stopped working after Jaunty upgrade

Please give versions for g15macro, libg15, libg15render and g15daemon (I'm pretty sure it's the latter, but more info doesn't hurt).
