[Bug 466029] New: fonts.dir refers to non-existent .bdf files, breaking accesses

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. Summary: fonts.dir refers to non-existent .bdf files, breaking accesses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466029 Summary: fonts.dir refers to non-existent .bdf files, breaking accesses Product: Fedora Version: 9 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: medium Component: fonts-KOI8-R AssignedTo: than(a)redhat.com ReportedBy: goeran(a)uddeborg.se QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: than(a)redhat.com, fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)redhat.com Classification: Fedora Description of problem: The file /usr/share/fonts/KOI8-R/misc/fonts.dir contains two entries for each font, one for the pcf.gz file and one for a bdf file that isn't included in the package. Apparently, the presence of the bdf entry breaks accesses to these fonts. As an example, it contains: 9x15s.bdf -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-koi8-ub 9x15s.pcf.gz -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-koi8-ub Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fonts-KOI8-R-1.0-10.fc8.noarch How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install fonts-KOI8-R 2. xfd -fn 9x15 Actual results: Warning: Cannot convert string "9x15" to type FontStruct xfd: no font to display Expected results: A window with the font displayed. Additional info: The bug can be avoided by rerunning mkfontdir in /usr/share/fonts/KOI8-R/misc. (And trigger the X server to reread its font files.) But there is no RPM script or other automatic way this is done. It must be done "by hand" after installation by the system administrator. And after doing this, the package fails a verify check by RPM. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install latest Fedora (development) 2. Configure it for Romanian language 3. Open a new text document in OpenOffice.org 4. Press AltGr+s and AltGr+t (and Shift for capitals) to insert the specific Romanian characters. Actual results: Characters with cedilla below are inserted in the document.

We must file & resolve a bug regarding the comma/cedilla issue for these default fonts and I don't know where to adress it, exactly. This is extremely important, since the "latarcyrheb-sun16" is the first thing that system "sees" after boot and we've already got some crashes due to incorrect encoding. In some situations, some programs (including anaconda) worked OK when set to English, but tracebacks occured when set to Romanian. Thanks a lot, Răzvan -- Additional comment from cchance(a)redhat.com on 2008-06-04 03:41 EST -- Hi Răzvan, (In reply to comment #20) Hmm, it looks quite serious, doesn't it? It's belonged to 'kbd' package in recent Fedora. Please feel free to file another bug on that package for requesting supports on the issues you kindly discovered. Cheers, Caius. -- Additional comment from alexxed(a)gmail.com on 2008-06-04 05:36 EST -- (In reply to comment #20) > Hello, Caius & all, > > When system is set to Romanian (by anaconda, at install time or via > system-config-language, afterwards), in /etc/sysconfig/i18n we get a line: > > SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16" > Are you sure? I've installed Fedora 9 i386 and x86_64 several times and /etc/sysconfig/i18n looks like this: LANG="ro_RO.UTF-8" SYSFONT="Lat2-Terminus16" I did use the graphical installer all the time. It may be only in text mode, I'll test this. Meantime here's a list of related bugs where this was addressed: - comments 23 and 24 in bug 253892 - bug list: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?version=&component=anaconda&bug_sta… before opening a new bug. -- Additional comment from razvan.sandu(a)mobexpert.ro on 2008-06-04 07:48 EST -- Sorry, my fault ! All systems I have at hand, running F9, were *upgraded* from F8, not fresh installs. So Terminus is now, in F9, the default font when setting system to Romanian ? However: - changing the default font is just a temporary solution, IMHO. "latarcyrheb-sun16" should also include the correct glyphs for the Romanian language; - when upgrading a (*Romanian*) system from F8 to F9, why don't we change that line in /etc/sysconfig/i18n during the upgrade itself ? Is that the correct behaviour ? - as for the keyboard configurator (system-config-keyboard, in both X and text mode), it seems it dissapeared from the System menu, in F9. And I see no replacement for it... Regards, Răzvan -- Additional comment from razvan.sandu(a)mobexpert.ro on 2008-06-04 07:51 EST -- Regarding comment #23, probably the correct behaviour at point no. 2 is to leave that line alone, but have the correct glyphs in "latarcyrheb-sun16" ;-) Regards, Răzvan -- Additional comment from alexxed(a)gmail.com on 2008-06-04 08:00 EST -- (In reply to comment #23) > Sorry, my fault ! > > All systems I have at hand, running F9, were *upgraded* from F8, not fresh > installs.

As far as I know what's planned is conversion of X keyboard layouts to console layouts. I doubt converting complex vector TTF/OTF fonts to dumb bitmap console fonts is possible without major human involvment. -- Additional comment from cchance(a)redhat.com on 2008-06-04 20:38 EST -- FYI, The font Alexandru mentioned is also within same console font package: $ rpm -qf /lib/kbd/consolefonts/Lat2-Terminus16.psf.gz kbd-1.12-31.fc9.i386 I agree Nicolas about converting complex vector TTF/OTF fonts to dumb bitmap console fonts. Even if the TTF/OTF embedded bitmap glyphs, font style consistency/readability might also be an issue. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug report. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=455510 Summary: Undisplayable glyphs on Wikipedia Product: Fedora Version: 9 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: pango AssignedTo: besfahbo(a)redhat.com ReportedBy: beland(a)alum.mit.edu QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)redhat.com I did a fresh installation of Fedora 9 using the network install method and adding Office/Productivity software in addition to the default set. I'm seeing undisplayable glyphs on the following pages: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punctuation#Unicode http://www.wikipedia.org/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenician_alphabet#Encoding I would expect a default installation to be able to display all glyphs that appear in Wikipedia, so that readers can learn about them. Many non-English glyphs, even fairly obscure ones, are displayed properly, which is excellent. It would be nice to finish off the rest. I don't know if this is a flaw in Pango, if I would need to install additional font RPMs, or something else. This is with firefox-3.0-1.fc9.i386 and pango-1.20.4-1.fc9.i386. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
