[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1166125] Re: Broken fonts for Gtk based applications
This package was somehow auto-installed in a release upgrade today from 14.04 to 14.10, and cost me most of the day trying to figure out why everything in X was glitchy and crashing. The terminal looked like http://askubuntu.com/questions/285836/letter-spacing-in-gnome-terminal Even xterm would crash on ctrl-right-click, and these badly-spaced strange characters appeared in almost every terminal emulator (xterm worked, except for its menus). Font selection dialogs ground the computer to a halt, and even the window manager titlebars were in a wonky font. Yet, something was showing, so it was a lot of work to investigate the entire stack of X11, Xft, fontconfig, freetype, pango, gtk, etc to find what component was bad. sudo apt-get purge pango-graphite solved the problem. No idea how that package got installed, but it's removal fixed everything immediately. There is a serious problem with this package in the 14.10 release of ubuntu as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1166125 Title: Broken fonts for Gtk based applications Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Unknown Status in Pango - Layout and Text Rendering LIbrary: Unknown Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “pango-graphite” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 beta of Ubuntu (Xubuntu), I am experiencing some issues.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1166125] Re: Broken fonts for Gtk based applications
Given that this package breaks the entire desktop in a non-obvious way, the priority should be high. I'm a software developer and have used linux as my daily OS since 1993 and it took me several hours to figure out what was going wrong. What are novice users going to do, other than install another OS, if this bug strikes them? This bug makes all of X totally unusable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1166125 Title: Broken fonts for Gtk based applications Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Unknown Status in Pango - Layout and Text Rendering LIbrary: Unknown Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “pango-graphite” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 beta of Ubuntu (Xubuntu), I am experiencing some issues.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1166125] Re: Broken fonts for Gtk based applications
pango-graphite and its dependent libgraphite3 should be removed from any dependencies and from the repos. The replacement (libgraphite2-3, yeh I know it's a funny order) integrates with harfbuzz-ng. I'm assuming that pango uses harfbuzz rather than its own shaping modules now? I don't know the procedure to withdraw a package from the repos from a particular release but I would suggest withdrawing pango-graphite and libgraphite3 from raring, saucy and subsequent releases. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1166125 Title: Broken fonts for Gtk based applications Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Unknown Status in Pango - Layout and Text Rendering LIbrary: Unknown Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “pango-graphite” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 beta of Ubuntu (Xubuntu), I am experiencing some issues.
