[Fedora-i18n-bugs] [Bug 1084228] New: Hinting for Liberation Sans inferior at small font size

Bug ID: 1084228
Summary: Hinting for Liberation Sans inferior at small font
size
Product: Fedora
Version: 20
Component: liberation-fonts

testcase with the problematic font charakteristics
Wikipedia recently switched to a predefined CSS font stack for body font so
even Windows users will be served with Liberation Sans if installed (e.g.
because it is distributed with Libre Office).
This made apparent inferior hinting of Liberation Sans with bold weight when
rendered at the specific size of 0.875em (the font size used in MediaWiki's
vector skin).
Most notable "e"s have a very thick lower curve while the upper curve is much
too thin. This also applies for variants like "è é ê ë". Funnily not for "œ æ"
though which is rendered differently.
Also notable is e.g. "s" which has thick upper/lower curves but is thin in the
middle.
A testcase with the described font characteristics set is attached. The
screenshot shows the rendering in Firefox.
The screenshot was created with Firefox 28.0 on Windows 7.
The installed version of the Liberation fonts is 2.00.1

[Fedora-i18n-bugs] [Bug 1169979] New: Some fonts not in fontconfig cache on Fedora 21 live images
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1169979
Bug ID: 1169979
Summary: Some fonts not in fontconfig cache on Fedora 21 live
images
Product: Fedora
Version: 21
Component: fontconfig
Assignee: tagoh(a)redhat.com
Reporter: awilliam(a)redhat.com

We've spotted an issue with Fedora 21 live images where some installed fonts
appear to be missing from the fontconfig cache in the live environment. An
'fc-cache -f' fixes this. For instance, on the Fedora 21 Final RC2 Workstation
x86_64 live:
[root@localhost liveuser]# fc-list | wc -l
141
[root@localhost liveuser]# fc-cache --force
[root@localhost liveuser]# fc-list | wc -l
159
The specific fonts that are missing on that image are:
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSansMono-BoldOblique.ttf: DejaVu Sans
Mono:style=Bold Oblique
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSansMono-Bold.ttf: DejaVu Sans Mono:style=Bold

The log of the compose is here:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/5463/8275463/root.log
In comparison, the i686 Workstation live is 'missing' only
/usr/share/fonts/google-noto/NotoSansTaiViet-Regular.ttf: Noto Sans Tai
Viet:style=Regular
its compose log is here:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/5460/8275460/root.log
to me, it appears the affected cases are ones where more than one package
contains fonts in the same directory, for packages installed *after* the
fontconfig package. The fontconfig package has an 'fc-cache -f' in its %post,
so any inconsistencies that exist before it's installed get fixed by that.
My first thesis was 'for any given directory, only fonts from the first package
installed after fontconfig will make it to the cache, fonts in the same
directory from subsequently-installed packages won't be added'. But it doesn't
seem to be that simple, because some fonts in /usr/share/fonts/google-noto
*are* added - the first 'noto' package installed is google-noto-sans-lisu-fonts
, and after that several more noto packages are installed. The fonts from
google-noto-sans-mandaic-fonts, google-noto-sans-meeteimayek-fonts , and
google-noto-sans-tai-tham-fonts *do* get added to the cache - but the fonts
from google-noto-sans-tagalog-fonts and google-noto-sans-tai-viet-fonts do
*not* get added. It's quite odd.
This is a fairly bad bug because of its impact on DejaVu Sans Mono: this is the
default monospace font for both Workstation and KDE (and I think the
non-blocking spins too). Its absence from the cache results in them using
Nimbus Mono L as their monospace fonts, which is a pretty crappy font, ugly and
hard to read. The workaround is easy once you know it, but if you don't, you
just think we have a really bad font.
There's an easy big hammer workaround we can use for a quick rebuild of the RC2
lives, if we like:
--- a/fedora-live-base.ks
+++ b/fedora-live-base.ks
@@ -299,6 +299,12 @@ rm -f /core*
# convince readahead not to collect
# FIXME: for systemd
+# forcibly regenerate fontconfig cache (so long as this live image has
+# fontconfig) - see #XXXXXXX
+if [ -x /usr/bin/fc-cache ] ; then
+ fc-cache -f
+fi
+
%end
i.e., just do an fc-cache -f at the end of live generation %post. I've tested
that locally, and it works, the generated Workstation image has 159 fonts in
fc-list (I also generated an image with the exact same config and build host,
but no change to spin-kickstarts, to verify that it reproduced the bug, and it
does).
The real fix should likely be in fc-cache, but the spin-kickstarts workaround
would solve this problem for F21.
I think fc-cache's behaviour must have changed between F20 and F21, as F20
doesn't appear to be affected by this at all, at least not the x86_64 desktop
live. All F21 images I've tested seem to be affected to some extent, though the
exact affected fonts vary depending on the package install order that yum
decided on.

Description of problem:
while running yum command in Punjabi Desktop (pa_IN) locale, there was some
output, which is broken, failed to read from terminal. When using Group
command,then all things are broken.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.2.24-5.fc12
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. in gnome-terminal set locale as 'export LANG=pa_IN.UTF-8'
2. yum grouplist
3.
Actual results:
output contains Punjabi (pa_IN) language, which is not shown properly
Expected results:
as Indic (all) languages are not render properly on Terminal, so output
should be in English for better use.
Additional info:
1) Other affected locales are *_IN (as_IN,bn_IN,gu_IN,hi_IN,ml_IN,mr_IN...)
2) for GUI front-end (gpk-application) locales are working fine

Description of problem:
One of nice gcin features is gcin prounces the character you type, thus lower
typo rate. However, the voice data is not packed in fedora.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.4.5-2.fc11
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right click on gcin for gcin setup menu.
2. Click on "Default input method & Enable/disable".
3. Enable "Speak as you type".
Actual results:
Due to lack of voice data, this function is not functional.
Expected results:
gcin speaks as you type.
Additional info:
Voice data can be downloaded at:
http://cle.linux.org.tw/trac/wiki/GcinTextToSpeech
How about make a gcin-voice sub-package?
