[Bug 1954716] New: Fonts not used correctly

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1954716 Bug ID: 1954716 Summary: Fonts not used correctly Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Status: NEW Component: fontconfig Assignee: tagoh(a)redhat.com Reporter: barbarah.duarte(a)fluocomunicacao.com.br 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, 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 Created attachment 1776799 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1776799&action=edit LibreOffice with all three fonts displayed in regular, italic and bold face. I have installed some company-provided fonts for use in presentations etc.: $ ls /usr/share/fonts/neo-sans-intel/ NeoSansIntel-Italic.ttf NeoSansIntel-MediumItalic.ttf NeoSansIntel-LightItalic.ttf NeoSansIntel-Medium.ttf NeoSansIntel-Light.ttf NeoSansIntel.ttf In LibreOffice I have a choice of three separate fonts: Neo Sans Intel, Neo Sans Intel Medium, and Neo Sans Intel Light. For each of those three, the italic version of the font (from the separate TTF file) is used. I can tell by the tail on the 'f' character. For bold text, however, an 'emboldening' algorithm seems to be used instead of using the appropriate separate font file. In GNOME font selection dialogs, I see just one 'Neo Sans Intel' family, with a choice of 8 styles. I'll ignore the italic versions since those do actually seem to work as expected, so there are four weights listed: - Light (== Neo Sans Intel Light) - Regular (== Neo Sans Intel Medium) - Medium (== Neo Sans Intel Medium) - Bold (== Neo Sans Intel Medium + emboldening algorithm?) I *don't* seem to have an option in GNOME which will just use the straight 'Neo Sans Intel' font. So both seem to be getting it wrong, in different ways. Or perhaps there's something wrong with the fonts themselves? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1926533 Bug ID: 1926533 Summary: Postinstall scripts are failable, fail during KDE netinst (due to dependency loop most likely) Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Component: xorg-x11-fonts Severity: urgent Assignee: xgl-maint(a)redhat.com Reporter: awilliam(a)redhat.com QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: airlied(a)redhat.com, ajax(a)redhat.com, caillon+fedoraproject(a)gmail.com, caolanm(a)redhat.com, fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, jglisse(a)redhat.com, negativo17(a)gmail.com, rhughes(a)redhat.com, rstrode(a)redhat.com, sandmann(a)redhat.com, xgl-maint(a)redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora In current Fedora Rawhide, KDE network installs fail with a scriptlet error in an xorg-x11-fonts subpackage: 16:36:01,304 INF dnf.rpm: mkfontscale: error while loading shared libraries: libfreetype.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory warning: %post(xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi-7.5-27.fc34.noarch) scriptlet failed, exit status 127 16:36:01,310 ERR dnf.rpm: Error in POSTIN scriptlet in rpm package xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi Dependencies should be in place, AFAICT: xorg-x11-fonts subpackages require 'mkfontdir', which is in the same package as mkfontscale (xorg-x11-font-utils) and that package requires libfreetype.so.6. What's likely happening is a dependency loop that dnf has to break somehow. This isn't uncommon on initial install, something like A requires B requires C requires A, and in order to do anything, dnf has to pick *some* dependency to disregard. Probably because of some loop like this, it's ordering install of xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi before install of freetype, and so its %post script fails. We could look for and try to fix that loop, but note the packaging guidelines state: "All scriptlets MUST exit with the zero exit status. Because RPM in its default configuration does not execute shell scriptlets with the -e argument to the shell, excluding explicit exit calls (frowned upon with a non-zero argument!), the exit status of the last command in a scriptlet determines its exit status. Most commands in the snippets in this document have a “|| :” appended to them, which is a generic trick to force the zero exit status for those commands whether they worked or not. Usually the most important bit is to apply this to the last command executed in a scriptlet, or to add a separate command such as plain “:” or “exit 0” as the last one in a scriptlet. Note that depending on the case, other error checking/prevention measures may be more appropriate. Non-zero exit codes from scriptlets can break installs/upgrades/erases such that no further actions will be taken for that package in a transaction (see Ordering), which may for example prevent an old version of a package from being erased on upgrades, leaving behind duplicate rpmdb entries and possibly stale, unowned files on the filesystem. There are some cases where letting the transaction to proceed when some things in scriptlets failed may result in partially broken setup. It is however often limited to that package only whereas letting a transaction to proceed with some packages dropped out on the fly is more likely to result in broader system wide problems." https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Scriptlets/#_synt… basically, by policy scriptlets should be written to return 0 even if they don't work. These scriptlets aren't respecting that. Given that not running mkfontdir likely doesn't have any calamitous consequences, I think it would make sense to go with the guidelines and amend all the scriptlets to add `|| :` at the end (which will cause them to exit 0 even if the command failed). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
