Summary: After `yum install vnc-server' firefox does not run https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=438006 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-03-20 13:20 EST ------- We should make clear what was the original problem I submitted this Bug: -> Firefox does not start at all. In fact I do not care much of the cosmetic aspects of the application(s) in some testing environment. US-ASCII in monospace is perfectly fine for me in such case. I also do not care of any weird non-English languages (speaking natively non-English). Debian has "required" packages and "suggested" packages. RPM does not make this difference and the RPM "Requires" is there only for the "required" packages. You are describing more the "suggested" packages (fonts) set and possibly even more. Your intentions may be right but they are out of the scope of this Bug. Your 1.(problem) is covered by the `xorg-x11-fonts-base-client' virtual dependency. If I have any client (fontconfig compatible) font nothing gets installed. If there is no fontconfig font some random one will be installed (and I do not care which one as any real end-user system will have enough of them by default). Your 2.+3.+5.(problems) talks about non-ASCII issues, these fonts are not requires for a basic start of an application. Your 4.(problem) - the Provides of `xorg-x11-fonts-base-client' should be placed into several (those 2 in my Comment 4?) fontconfig-compatible fonts and it will not change in the future. Your 6.(problem) I do not understand - we are talking about ASCII-compatible fontconfig-compatible fonts here. Your 1.+2.(solution) does not solve the problem I posted. Your 3.(solution) is an excessive workload out of the scope of this Bug. I am not an artist and the problem I posted will never be faced by any regular end-user. It is faced by the QA folks and the developers. I usually even do not see the application started as I just login there by text SSH and anyway my link is too slow to (needlessly) run a VNC viewer over it. Sorry I still see my Comment 4 as the optimal solution for the simple problem posted. -- 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. _______________________________________________ Fedora-fonts-bugs-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-bugs-list
