font patcher fails #495
Description
🎯 Subject of the issue
I installed FontForge from my distribution's package manager (pacman on Arch Linux).
I tried to patch several ttf fonts: JetbrainsMono (downloaded here) and Inconsolata (downloaded from google fonts), in various style. All fail with the same error message:
$ fontforge -script font-patcher --octicons static/Inconsolata-Bold.t
