Nicolas Mailhot <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #42 from Nicolas Mailhot <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Hans Ulrich Niedermann from comment #38) > Uhm. This is confusing. The font list for gnome-terminal starts with > > DejaVu Sans Mono Bold > DejaVu Sans Mono Book > DejaVu Sans Mono Oblique > DejaVu Sans Mono Bold Oblique > Droid Sans Mono Regular > Droid Sans Mono Italic > Droid Sans Mono Bold > Droid Sans Mono Bold Italic Well none of those exist in the font file themselves. (the giveaway is “DejaVu Sans Mono Book” or “Droid Sans Mono Regular”) The gnome-terminal font selector is reconstructing a fake Name ID 4 (aka fullname) by collating Family (Name ID 16 or 21) and Style (Name ID 17 or 22). Probably to workaround the following fontconfig bug: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/fontconfig/fontconfig/issues/208 However, because the people that wrote the workaround did not bother reporting their problem fonconfig-side, and because they didn’t bother reading the OpenType Naming spec, they forgot the “Regular” special case. And the result is no better than using raw Name ID 4 directly (which is broken for some real-world font files). You can check the actual metadata contained in font files with fontforge or fc-scan (the later will apply fontconfig-level naming fixups) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ fonts-bugs mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]
