This happens when running anaconda on a regular system in test mode too.

We've merged a lot of Asian (Korean...) fonts lately, maybe it's one of them

You really need to have Behdad audit the fontconfig priority level given to all
recent CJK fonts (and I include fonts in the pipeline like hanazono).

For example, I've seen CJK packages that proposed 59 as priority, when our
guidelines (which match upstream's) state the highest priority for a non LGC
font should be 65.

I hope we'll not repeat the arms race between Chinese/Japanese/Korean users
where each one tries to one-up the other and put himself higher in the priority
queue.

This only seems to affect anaconda, so I don't see why this should be a
fontconfig issue.

Jens - so, any idea what could be going on here?  I'm not exactly a font expert
so I'm at a bit of a loss as to what could be the cause of this problem.

I guess pango is not seeing the locale information somehow so it doesn't know
what CJK font to choose.

As I recall this regression started happening (very roughly) a week or more
before this bug was filed.

Not sure if I tested well enough, or what happened, but this is back in
f10-final unfortunately. :-(

Yeah my bad I retested anaconda-11.4.1.57-1 and it was broken too.

Actually testing more I realise this is not a new bug: it affects Chinese fonts
in F8 and F9 anaconda too.
Now in F10 Chinese is ok but Japanese broken instead - presumably the
fontconfig default priorities changed that.
But this needs to be fixed by some kind of lang tagging or locale setting in
anaconda.

> it affects Chinese fonts in F8 and F9 anaconda too.

I meant Chinese installs (they get Japanese glyphs appearing when they exist).

Sometimes, font switching in pango is irresponsible、especially in alias fonts
(serif, sans-serif, monospace).

Firefox used to have the similar problem and has been fixed.
