[Bug 1727602] New: Fedora flatpak for this app on registry.fedoraproject.org

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1727602 Bug ID: 1727602 Summary: Fedora flatpak for this app on registry.fedoraproject.org Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Status: NEW Component: fontforge Assignee: kevin(a)scrye.com Reporter: 7d28c752(a)opayq.com QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, kevin(a)scrye.com, paul(a)frixxon.co.uk, pnemade(a)redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora It would be great if you could provide a flatpak package of this app to https://registry.fedoraproject.org/. Especially for users of Fedora Silverblue https://silverblue.fedoraproject.org/ this then allows a seamless installation and upgrades without rebooting the system (just restarting the application). Additionally, flatpaks can of course be installed on any distro, so also non-Fedora users could use it too. More details: * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Workstation/Flatpaks * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Graphical_Applications_as_Flatpaks I know this app is available on Flathub as a flatpak, but I still prefer Fedora's package testing/QA etc., that's why I'd also like to have a version on https://registry.fedoraproject.org/. Also Flathub is a third-party source from the Fedora users/projects viewpoint, so I guess some users would not like to use third-party app sources. However, the fact that it is on Flathub should make it easier for you to implement this, because you can have a look on how they do it. (Not that you need to do everything in the same way, but it proves it is possible to package as a flatpak, at least.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 1809989] New: By default install Noto fonts for Unicode scripts not already covered by default
by bugzilla＠redhat.com 02 Apr '22

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1809989 Bug ID: 1809989 Summary: By default install Noto fonts for Unicode scripts not already covered by default Product: Fedora Version: 31 Status: NEW Component: google-noto-fonts Assignee: petersen(a)redhat.com Reporter: hsivonen(a)hsivonen.fi QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, petersen(a)redhat.com, psatpute(a)redhat.com, pwu(a)redhat.com, tagoh(a)redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora There is currently movement towards protecting browser users from font fingerprinting. This means refusing, by default, to load user-installed fonts, which makes the set of fonts that each OS installs by default even more important than before. Firefox bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1582687 W3C CSS WG issue: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4497 Currently, Windows 10, macOS, Android, and Chrome OS provide broader installed-by-default Unicode coverage than Fedora. Examples of living scripts that have enough active users to make it to the list at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_writing_systems#List_of_writing_scrip… but are not supported by default in Fedora 31 include Javanese, Sundanese, Batak, Balinese, Mongolian, and New Tai Lue. Egyptian hieroglyphs is an example of a dead script the Fedora 31 doesn't support out of the box but Windows 10, macOS, Chrome OS, and Android do. To remedy this with minimal disk space impact, I suggest the same approach that Apple took. Apple bundles with macOS those Noto fonts that cover scripts that were not already covered by the previous installed-by-default set of fonts on macOS. In the macOS case, the on-disk footprint of the Noto fonts that were required to take macOS to Android/Chrome OS-competitive Unicode coverage was only a couple of megabytes. (The fonts are hidden in /Library/Application Support/Apple/Fonts/Language Support/.) In the case of Fedora, the set of Noto fonts required to reach the Chrome OS / Android level of script coverage is a bit larger than in the macOS case but should still be manageable. Please install, by default, those Noto fonts that provide support for scripts that are not properly supported by the fonts that Fedora already installs by default. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 1784650] New: Fontconfig is slow, causing stuttering and freezing

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1784650 Bug ID: 1784650 Summary: Fontconfig is slow, causing stuttering and freezing Product: Fedora Version: 31 Status: NEW Component: fontconfig Severity: high Assignee: tagoh(a)redhat.com Reporter: bepvte+bugzilla(a)gmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: ajax(a)redhat.com, caillon+fedoraproject(a)gmail.com, fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, gnome-sig(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, john.j5live(a)gmail.com, mclasen(a)redhat.com, pnemade(a)redhat.com, rhughes(a)redhat.com, rstrode(a)redhat.com, sandmann(a)redhat.com, tagoh(a)redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora Description of problem: Fontconfig is much much slower than on other distros, and it stutters or freezes applications that use it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Name : fontconfig Version : 2.13.92 Release : 3.fc31 Architecture: x86_64 How reproducible: I can reproduce this bug on a fresh Fedora 31 vm with the Xfce desktop and google-noto-sans-* fonts installed. Steps to Reproduce: 1. dnf install google-noto-sans-* 2. run gedit on the attached example file alternatively 1. dnf install google-noto-sans-* 2. open firefox and browse to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q52 (page with lots of languages) Actual results: It takes around 60 seconds for gedit to become responsive to scrolling and input. Mousepad is faster but still slow. It takes firefox upwards of 5 minutes to get to first paint on a page with many fonts or languages, compared to a simpler page. Expected results: Gedit should load files with many fonts at a similar speed as other distros. The page should load quickly, like on Debian and others. Additional info: I have tried to diagnose the source of this issue in many ways. Running `perf trace` on what sysprof indicated was the most busy function (FcStrCmpIgnoreCaseAndDelims), shows that every name of every font family is being compared to every other name of every other font family. I do not know if this is a normal behaviour of fontconfig. I have noticed the amount of calls to "FcStrCmpIgnoreCaseAndDelims" and program startup time both drop to a similar amount as Debian's when all of the "google-noto" configuration files in /etc/fonts/conf.d/ are deleted (These files are not present in Debian). However, this might not be the source of the problem: In the Debian vm, with a copy of my computer's /etc/fonts/, including the google-noto files, (I took care to ensure that there would be no broken symlinks) and /usr/share/fonts, fontconfig does not stall any programs. The amount of calls to FcStrCmpIgnoreCaseAndDelims is also much lower as well. This led me to believe that it was a difference caused by compiler flags but this does not seem to be the case. I tried to replace the optflags in the package, except for the rpmbuild required debug ones, and found no difference. I also checked to ensure that it was not caused by GCC version differences. Debian results for mousepad: 1,845,449 calls to FcStrCmpIgnoreCaseAndDelims Time: 5 seconds Fedora results for mousepad: 11,658,380 calls to FcStrCmpIgnoreCaseAndDelims Time: 23 seconds https://perfht.ml/2tleJxN Here is a link to a Firefox profiler result of the wikidata page, where in the flame graph you can see that Firefox is spending most of its time in fontconfig. You can also see "FirstNonBlankPaint" is at 50 seconds in the marker table. TLDR: Fontconfig matching is slow with all google-noto fonts installed, unless you remove the noto config files. Using the same exact font directory and config directory (including the noto config files) on Debian does not cause the same problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Since F32 this isn't working anymore. CJK characters are rendered in a different font, which I cannot recognize. Digging through fc_debug logs, "Droid Sans" is appended right after "Noto Sans", before "Noto Sans CJK SC" in the font matching list. Debug messages confirm it's indeed Droid Sans getting picked. Removing the relevant part in /etc/fonts/conf.d/65-google-droid-sans-fonts.conf mitigates this issue. However since both Noto Sans & Droid Sans do not contain CJK characters, they should both be skipped in favor of CJK fonts. Could this be a metadata problem? i.e. Droid Sans wrongly advertises as CJK capable.
