[Bug 477429] New: Please convert to new font packaging guidelines

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. Summary: Please convert to new font packaging guidelines https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477429 Summary: Please convert to new font packaging guidelines Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: medium Component: myanmar3-unicode-fonts AssignedTo: mvaliyav(a)redhat.com ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: mvaliyav(a)redhat.com, fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)redhat.com Classification: Fedora This bug has been filed because we've detected your package includes one or several font files: repoquery -C --repoid=rawhide -f '*.ttf' -f '*.otf' -f '*.pfb' -f '*.pfa' --qf='%{SOURCERPM}\n' |sed -e 's+-[0-9.-]*\.fc[123456789]$.*$src.rpm++g'|sort|uniq Unfortunately the script does not detect symlinks to other packages, so if that's your case, you can close this bug report now. Otherwise, you should know that: - Fedora guidelines demand the packaging of fonts in a separate package or subpackage: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Avoid_bundling_of_fonts_… - our font packaging guidelines recently changed, and every package that ships fonts must be adapted to the new templates available in the fontpackages-devel package. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Fonts_packaging_automation_(2… http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_fonts_policy_package http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Simple_fonts_spec_template http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fonts_spec_template_for_multiple_fonts Please make your package conform to the current guidelines in rawhide. If your package is not principaly a font package, depending on a separate font package or subpackage is the prefered solution. If your application does not use fontconfig you can always package symlinks to the files provided by the font package and installed in the correct fontconfig directories. It is preferred to make a font package or subpackage per font family, though it is not currently a hard guidelines requirement (it may become before Fedora 11 is released). The definition of a font family is given on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fonts_spec_template_notes/font-family The new templates should make the creation of font subpackages easy and safe. The following packages have already been converted and can serve as examples: - andika-fonts - apanov-heuristica-fonts - bitstream-vera-fonts - charis-fonts - dejavu-fonts - ecolier-court-fonts - edrip-fonts - gfs-ambrosia-fonts - gfs-artemisia-fonts - gfs-baskerville-fonts - gfs-bodoni-classic-fonts - gfs-bodoni-fonts - gfs-complutum-fonts - gfs-didot-classic-fonts - gfs-didot-fonts - gfs-eustace-fonts - gfs-fleischman-fonts - gfs-garaldus-fonts - gfs-gazis-fonts - gfs-jackson-fonts - gfs-neohellenic-fonts - gfs-nicefore-fonts - gfs-olga-fonts - gfs-porson-fonts - gfs-solomos-fonts - gfs-theokritos-fonts - stix-fonts - yanone-kaffeesatz-fonts If you have any remaining questions about the new guidelines please ask them on fedora-fonts-list at redhat.com -- 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.

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.

We need to match on font family, font style, language support, unicode support, etc. At any time all of just some of those selection criterii can be provided by the user or applications. To have features like font auto-installation work reliably, this matching needs to extend to the package installation selection logic Right now rpm is only allowing to specify atomic provides, so we can have a font package that Provides font(dejavusans) and Provides font(:lang=el) but there is no warranty both those provides are belonging to the same font. There is no way to distinguish between a package that includes an actual greek dejavusans and a package that includes a dejavusans greek-less file and another totally different greek font To workaround this rpm limitation we've been asking packagers to put font files belonging to different font families in different packages. However: 1. many still don't 2. it's not technically possible for all font formats, for example the ttc font format allows mixing of fonts with different characteristics in a single file The ideal solution: Ability to have Provides like: font(comma-separated font name list|comma-separated style list|comma-separated lang list) (rough mockup that probably needs refining) And have package selectors like (dejavu|*|el) that work in yum (yes a font can declare many different names, be available in many different styles, cover many different languages) For ttc files we'd then generate one Provides for each font included in the ttc bundle -- 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.
