- Installed fontforge using the instructions on http://fontforge.github.io/en-US/.
- Instlalled other dependencies outlined in https://github.com/Financial-Times/o-ft-icons/edit/master/README.md
- Fontforge just opens and then immediately crashes again as documented in this bug: fontforge/fontforge#2497
- I install font forge from HEAD using this link: http://fuuko.libferris.com/osx/packages/FontForge_latest-HEAD.app.dmg
- This seems to work without error
- I do
obt install
- I do
grunt
- The webfonts task (which uses fontforge) fails with (something like)
fontforge is not installed please ensure you have all dependencies installed
- I decide to use homebrew instead
- I do
brew install fontforge
which appears to work
