  [ Impact ]

   * On Ubuntu Mate with the Lunar series, when running
     ubuntu-release-upgrader, the displayed font of running
     applications (including the upgrader) becomes very corrupted.

   * This is not just a display problem, it is also a functional one.
     The release upgrader will have text corrupted to the point
     where a dialog asks a decision, and displays two buttons, but the
     text is unreadable and one has to guess which button is the one
     that carries out their desired action.

   * In the early parts of the upgrader tool, users are told in bold:
     "To prevent data loss close all open applications and documents."
     This is just before the "Start Upgrade" button is available.
     But they may not do so.  Many applications may have a corrupted
     font.

   * To address this, an additional environment variable is being
     passed along to pkexec, XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, as this is the
     critical criteria for making the Mate version of the fix work.

   * Also in the change are
     * an update to tests
 * from pre-build.sh
       * an update of the mirrors.cfg, adding and removing several
 mirrors
       * a refresh of the po files

  [ Test Plan ]

   * acquire an Ubuntu Mate environment running Ubuntu Lunar on amd64

   * as user, run "update-manager -d"

   * monitor the "Distribution Upgrade" screen.  During the "Installing
     the upgrades" step (and mind that this step will be long), observe
     the text of the "Distribution Upgrade" screen and verify that the
     font does not corrupt.

   * Repeat the above for Ubuntu Desktop

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * We are changing, at release time, ubuntu-release upgrader.  If we
     are careless, we could regress upgrades for a wider group of users
     than just Ubuntu Mate.  That said, it is believed that passing the
     additional XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable is relatively low risk.

  [ Other Info ]

   * TBD

Well, it solved *your* problem, which we now know is of another nature

For me removing "fonts-wine" "solved" the problem, but I don't know if
this is a proper fix, or just a temporary work-around in my case.

  [ Impact ]

   * On Ubuntu Mate with the Lunar series, when running
     ubuntu-release-upgrader, the displayed font of running
     applications (including the upgrader) becomes very corrupted.

   * This is not just a display problem, it is also a functional one.
     The release upgrader will have text corrupted to the point
     where a dialog asks a decision, and displays two buttons, but the
     text is unreadable and one has to guess which button is the one
     that carries out their desired action.

   * In the early parts of the upgrader tool, users are told in bold:
     "To prevent data loss close all open applications and documents."
     This is just before the "Start Upgrade" button is available.
     But they may not do so.  Many applications may have a corrupted
     font.

   * To address this, an additional environment variable is being
     passed along to pkexec, XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, as this is the
     critical criteria for making the Mate version of the fix work.

   * Also in the change are
     * an update to tests
 * from pre-build.sh
       * an update of the mirrors.cfg, adding and removing several
 mirrors
       * a refresh of the po files

  [ Test Plan ]

   * acquire an Ubuntu Mate environment running Ubuntu Lunar on amd64

   * as user, run "update-manager -d"

   * monitor the "Distribution Upgrade" screen.  During the "Installing
     the upgrades" step (and mind that this step will be long), observe
     the text of the "Distribution Upgrade" screen and verify that the
     font does not corrupt.

   * Repeat the above for Ubuntu Desktop

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * We are changing, at release time, ubuntu-release upgrader.  If we
     are careless, we could regress upgrades for a wider group of users
     than just Ubuntu Mate.  That said, it is believed that passing the
     additional XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable is relatively low risk.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Mauricio Faria de Oliveira]

Summary for Mantic SRUs.

There are 3 LP bugs combined in mantic-proposed
(list sorted by package version so it's helpful).

1) Bug 2034986, used twice,

1A) First for 1:23.10.9, for 'fix v1':
* Temporary font for Ubuntu MATE (LP: #2034986)

It's released to mantic-updates with 1:23.10.10 (fix for
autopkgtests).

1B) Later for 1:23.10.11, for XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP:
* do-release-upgrade: pass XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP env var (LP: #2034986) 

It's reverted in 1:23.10.12:
* Temporarily revert "do-release-upgrade: pass XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP env var"

and reapplied in 1:23.10.13:
* do-release-upgrade: pass XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP env var (LP: #2034986)

2) Bug 2039356, used for 'fix v2' in 1:23:10.12:
* Adjustments of unreadable text workaround (LP: #2039356)

3) Bug 2039172, used for an unrelated quirk:
* DistUpgradeQuirks: prevent upgrades on BIOS systems with XFS /boot (LP: 
#2039172)

...

So, for verification, we have to consider 1:23.10.11 up to .14.

.11 doesn't need verification, as it's reverted in .12
.12 is verified (comment #65 / bug 2039356 comment #3)
.13 is not yet verified (comment #65, #66)
.14 is verified, but pending questions (bug 2039172 comment #9)

Thus, it seems what is pending for releasing mantic-proposed
is verification for .13 (that I'm happy to do synthetically),
plus a question for .14 (I'd be be happy to help, if needed).

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

Ok.

This bug is focused on the UI for the upgrader itself. I would recommend
you to ask a question at Ask Ubuntu. That way you'll hopefully get help
to determine if it is a problem with your configuration or some kind of
bug.

My upgrade for Ubuntu to 23.10 was a bunch of days ago. In that time I
have rebooted multiple times and no change observed for fonts (better or
worse). Still bad heh

   * On Ubuntu Mate with the Lunar series, when running

     applications (including the upgrader) becomes very corrupted.

   * This is not just a display problem, it is also a functional one.
     The release upgrader will have text corrupted to the point
     where a dialog asks a decision, and displays two buttons, but the

   * In the early parts of the upgrader tool, users are told in bold:
     "To prevent data loss close all open applications and documents."
     This is just before the "Start Upgrade" button is available.
     But they may not do so.  Many applications may have a corrupted
     font.

   * To address this, an additional environment variable is being
     passed along to pkexec, XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, as this is the
     critical criteria for making the Mate version of the fix work.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[BloodyIron]

Not sure if I'm in the right thread, but after upgrading to Mantic
(23.10) a lot of fonts, namely in browsers, look like trash. There's
lots of overlapping and other font weirdness. I haven't really seen
boxes yet, but it was not present before doing do-release-upgrade.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Nick Rosbrook]

Because upgrades are not enabled yet for mantic -> noble, we still
cannot explicitly verify the XDG_SESSION_TYPE fix for mantic. However,
(a) since this exact patch was verified for lunar -> mantic, (b) this
patch relates to upgrading *from* mantic rather than *to* mantic, and
(c) we do not want to further delay upgrades to mantic, I believe it is
reasonable to release ubuntu-release-upgrader to mantic-updates without
explicit verification of the XDG_SESSION_TYPE fix.

Hence, I am marking this bug as verified, and am requesting that the SRU
team accepts this rationale.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

I made a verification attempt for mantic of the 1:23.10.12 changes.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-
upgrader/+bug/2039356/comments/3

While those changes are included in 1:23.10.13, the specific change in
1:23.10.13 (letting do-release-upgrade set the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP
variable) was not included in that verification and needs to be decided
on separately.

update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
mantic to verification-done-mantic. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-mantic. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

@Nathan: I think you actually describe the underlying reason why this is
an issue. For running processes which use a particular font, you'll see
the characters become corrupted if you replace the related font file,
and it will fix itself when you restart the process.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Nathan Teodosio]

I see the bug is addressed, but for what it's worth, one more data
point.

I just run into the issue today when doing

  apt remove fonts-ubuntu*

What I didn't notice was that a replacement instead of a removal was
carried out

  fonts-ubuntu (0.83-6ubuntu1 => 0.869-0ubuntu1)

After a while I turned back to Firefox — which I had set up to use
Ubuntu font as default — and it had corrupted font.

That was not during installation, it was my normal several months old
Mantic environment. Restarting Firefox solved the problem. I can
reproduce it with

  apt install fonts-ubuntu fonts-ubuntu-classic-

[Nick Rosbrook]

Since this bug fix cannot be properly verified for Mantic until the
archive is open for the next release, I have temporarily reverted this
change in my last upload so that we can proceed with the fix in bug
2039356 for now.

Edit: By "this change", I mean the most recent change related to this
bug which was uploaded in 1:23.10.11.

** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu Mantic)

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

Since I propose yet another SRU, I created bug #2039356. This bug report
is quite noisy already...

My examination of the flavors with respect to this issue focused on two
questions:

1. Does the u-r-u model effectively prevent 'the unreadable text issue'
when the desktop font in use — whether default or set by the user — has
changed during the cycle?

After the changes proposed via bug #2039356 I would say "yes" for:

 Ubuntu Desktop
 Ubunu Budgie
 Ubuntu Cinnamon
 Ubuntu Kylin
 Ubuntu MATE
 Ubuntu Unity

while the model (i.e. temporarily changing a dconf value which
represents the desktop font) is not effective for:

 Kubuntu
 Lubuntu
 Xubuntu

In case of Kubuntu and Lubuntu the Qt way of dealing with fonts seems to
require something else, and the Xfce way applied in Xubuntu means
similar difficulties. Fortunately all those flavors use a desktop font
by default (Noto Sans) which was not changed during the cycle, so this
does not need to be addressed for mantic.

But if you like, you can trigger the 23.04 -> 23.10 upgrade issue in for
instance Xubuntu: Go to Settings -> Appearance -> Fonts and change the
"Default Font" from Noto Sans to Ubuntu. Doing so will be reflected both
in the ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xsettings.xml file and
in dconf (gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name), but
changing the font-name dconf value only to something else during upgrade
(as we do) won't change the effective desktop font in Xubuntu, which
results in 'the unreadable text issue'.

2. Is the temporary desktop font dconf value properly reset at next
login after reboot?

Yes it is, after the changes proposed via bug #2039356.

Thanks for reporting that. I have not found otherwise.

But in most of those cases (not Ubuntu Desktop) the text keeps being
readable simply because they use a font (read: Noto Sans) which hasn't
changed during the cycle.

> That means I also missed Ubuntu Unity.

I think the fix already in place applies to Unity too.

I'll explain more when posting about my next MP. :/

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Steve Langasek]

Hello Brian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ubuntu-release-upgrader into mantic-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/1:23.10.11
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
mantic to verification-done-mantic. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-mantic. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu Mantic)
   Status: Fix Released => Fix Committed

** Tags removed: verification-done

  [ Impact ]

   * On Ubuntu Mate with the Lunar series, when running
     ubuntu-release-upgrader, the displayed font of running
     applications (including the upgrader) becomes very corrupted.

   * This is not just a display problem, it is also a functional one.
     The release upgrader will have text corrupted to the point
     where a dialog asks a decision, and displays two buttons, but the
     text is unreadable and one has to guess which button is the one
     that carries out their desired action.

   * In the early parts of the upgrader tool, users are told in bold:
     "To prevent data loss close all open applications and documents."
     This is just before the "Start Upgrade" button is available.
     But they may not do so.  Many applications may have a corrupted
     font.

   * To address this, an additional environment variable is being
     passed along to pkexec, XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, as this is the
     critical criteria for making the Mate version of the fix work.

   * Also in the change are
     * an update to tests
 * from pre-build.sh
       * an update of the mirrors.cfg, adding and removing several
 mirrors
       * a refresh of the po files

  [ Test Plan ]

   * acquire an Ubuntu Mate environment running Ubuntu Lunar on amd64

   * as user, run "update-manager -d"

   * monitor the "Distribution Upgrade" screen.  During the "Installing
     the upgrades" step (and mind that this step will be long), observe
     the text of the "Distribution Upgrade" screen and verify that the
     font does not corrupt.

   * Repeat the above for Ubuntu Desktop

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * We are changing, at release time, ubuntu-release upgrader.  If we
     are careless, we could regress upgrades for a wider group of users
     than just Ubuntu Mate.  That said, it is believed that passing the
     additional XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable is relatively low risk.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

I'm investigating the flavors in this respect more systematically, and
just found that a 23.04 -> 23.10 upgrade of Ubuntu Cinnamon is still hit
by this issue (they use the schema org.cinnamon.desktop.interface ...).
So adding the Cinnamon project for now.

I will soon come up with a proposal for mantic to deal with some details
including the Cinnamon issue.

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Brian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ubuntu-release-upgrader into jammy-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/1:22.04.18
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this

  [ Impact ]

   * On Ubuntu Mate with the Lunar series, when running
     ubuntu-release-upgrader, the displayed font of running
     applications (including the upgrader) becomes very corrupted.

   * This is not just a display problem, it is also a functional one.
     The release upgrader will have text corrupted to the point
     where a dialog asks a decision, and displays two buttons, but the
     text is unreadable and one has to guess which button is the one
     that carries out their desired action.

   * In the early parts of the upgrader tool, users are told in bold:
     "To prevent data loss close all open applications and documents."
     This is just before the "Start Upgrade" button is available.
     But they may not do so.  Many applications may have a corrupted
     font.

   * To address this, an additional environment variable is being
     passed along to pkexec, XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, as this is the
     critical criteria for making the Mate version of the fix work.

   * Also in the change are
     * an update to tests

   * acquire an Ubuntu Mate environment running Ubuntu Lunar on amd64

     the text of the "Distribution Upgrade" screen and verify that the

   * We are changing, at release time, ubuntu-release upgrader.  If we

Yeah, that's expected. I didn't think it was motivated to play with
multiple dconf keys only for MATE.

I've tested an upgrade of Ubuntu MATE (running Lunar) with -proposed
enabled with version 1:23.04.7 installed and the fonts in the body of
the ubuntu-release-upgrader were legible, however the title bar was
corrupted but that's fine.

Hmm.. The XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable keeps being present when you use
sudo, which is the reason why we successfully tested the MATE specific
code. Apparently the pkexec environment differs.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Brian Murray]

Hello Brian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ubuntu-release-upgrader into lunar-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/1:23.04.7
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
lunar to verification-done-lunar. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-lunar. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

@Ethan: MATE is about to be fixed. Once ubuntu-release-upgrader
1:23.10.10 has made it to mantic-release, you shouldn't be able to
reproduce that. Let us know otherwise.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Jeremy Bícha]

Sorry for the noise about Lubuntu. There is a very minor issue seen
during the upgrade if Firefox is running (regardless of whether the
desktop is Lubuntu). It's recommended to not run other apps during the
upgrade. In this case, restarting Firefox is usually enough to fix the
issue. If not, restarting after the upgrade completes does fix the
issue.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

I just ran an errand, and thought about that font workaround. The MATE
issue makes me doubt about running the code for all the flavors.

We know that the root cause is changes to the Ubuntu font. That font is
explicitly used for desktop in standard Ubuntu and MATE. But is it used
for desktop by any other flavor?

I fear that we for other flavors mess with their settings unnecessarily.
If the reset succeeds, it doesn't matter much, but maybe more flavors
have not enabled the required systemd integration, and then our
'temporary' change gets persistent. Which may or may not matter in
practice.

So maybe it would be better to only run the code for flavors where we
know that it makes a difference. Something like:

is_mate = False
desktops = os.getenv('XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP', '').split(':')
if 'MATE' in desktops:
schema = 'org.mate.interface'
is_mate = True
else if 'GNOME' in desktops:
schema = 'org.gnome.desktop.interface'
else if 'xxx' in desktops:
schema = 'yyy'
else:
return

> But this makes me wonder if there is a need to special case other

I've noted a number of users report 'garbled' or 'unreadable' text on
discord (testing-cycles) & Ubuntu-MATE discourse (#1) but one of those
reports led us back here, alas I'm not aware of any beyond Jim Markus
who've actually followed up with an actual bug report, and I can't
provide any useful info.

I have run a test looking for this issue specifically with Lubuntu
(lunar -> mantic) and did NOT experience an issue on a virtualbox VM.

Links shouldn't be necessary; but included anyway

I submitted a MP to make the fix apply to MATE. It's not without issues,
though (see the linked MP), and I think we need involvement from the
MATE developers.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

To the extent I participated in the resolution of this bug, I had
standard Ubuntu in mind, where the default desktop font can be accessed
like this:

gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name

And that's the key whose value is temporarily changed when upgrading to
23.10. But on MATE that does not help, since MATE uses its own schema:

gsettings get org.mate.interface font-name

And since MATE uses the Ubuntu font by default, the issue is identical
to the issue in standard Ubuntu. I think the fix in ubuntu-release-
upgrader can be adjusted so it interacts with the schema which is
actually in use in MATE.

But this makes me wonder if there is a need to special case other
flavors besides MATE.

Erich, maybe a separate bug is appropriate here.

The original issue, upgrading Ubuntu Desktop from 23.04 to 23.10, works
for me now.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Nick Rosbrook]

I have uploaded the fix. I am adding block-proposed so that I can do
another test, i.e. do-release-upgrade -d -p, just because the manual way
of testing differs slightly.

To make it easier to keep 'the temporary font' approach in 24.04 — if
that is what we want by then — I added a hard dependency on fonts-
dejavu-core to desktop-common. No upstream changes to the DejaVu fonts
have been made the last 6 years, so it's more or less unmaintained,
which in this context is an advantage.

For the near term, I am working on adapting Gunnar's existing work in a

It does, which is why improved robustness in the font libraries is
preferred.  But without an improvement there, the most we can hope for is to
ensure the upgrader itself remains usable to let the upgrade complete and
allow the user to reboot to the updated system.

If I was in a nitpicking mode I would mention that the unreadable
character problem also affects the desktop itself and possible open
programs (even if the latter is advised against). So it's not obvious to
me that the approach you mention would be better.

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Steve Langasek]

Trying to think in terms of robust general solutions to this problem, what
if update-manager were to notice when fonts were upgraded, and when they
are, shut down the GUI connection and reinitialize it?  This might require
saving a bit of state information in update-manager in order to be able to
restore it.

Similiar in principle would be for the font libraries to notice when the
fonts have changed on disk and react accordingly, but since this obviously
hasn't been done yet and this problem has existed for years, we maybe
shouldn't count on solving that in the near term.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

Hopefully an ubuntu-release-upgrader workaround will be in place soon.

But in a sense this is an ubuntu-meta matter as well. The code in my
merge proposal sets the "Sans" font temporarily, which in lunar means
that either DejaVu Sans or Noto Sans will be used in the UI during the
upgrade (unless the user has configured fontconfig to use some other
font...). And that is fine in lunar, since DejaVu Sans is always
present, and neither DejaVu Sans nor Noto Sans were changed during the
mantic cycle.

But one of the changes in mantic is that no font is safely present (i.e.
the default ones are "Recommends:" only). So later, when people will
upgrade from 23.10 to 24.04, just using "Sans" temporarily may not be
the best option. And changing it to a specific font family is tricky,
since we don't know if the user has uninstalled some of the default font
packages.

So my thought is: Can this be a reason to let desktop-common depend on,
and not only recommend, some font package after all? And if so, which
package would be suitable for the purpose?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

@Daniel: Maybe I answered a bit hasty. I see this issue over and over
again without any Nvidia driver. But I do have a Nvidia card, if that
may be related.

Not sure about the root cause of this bug. We know that it happens with
the Ubuntu font and that that font was changed in the mantic cycle. But
is the font change to blame, or is it maybe some inability in
Gtk/Pango/whatever to deal with a font change smoothly? Or is it a
limitation in fontconfig? Would the issue show up if some other font in
use had been changed, even if it was not set via the font-name dconf
value?

Those are thoughts in my head.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Steve Langasek]

Gunnar, one concern raised is that 'Sans 11' may be a different font
size than is used for the current interface font, so setting this may
cause legibility problems for users who have intentionally configured
larger fonts.  Can you suggest a workaround that's font-size-neutral?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Brian Murray]

I think we'd want to put it in a "quirk" and those are found in
DistUpgradeQuirks.py:

https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-
upgrader/tree/DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeQuirks.py?h=ubuntu/mantic

I think a "StartUpgrade" quirk is likely the best time for this but
there should be a check to ensure that we are using the gtk frontend or
some other check to ensure that we really need to modify the font.

The attached script is an attempt to express my idea in python code. I
don't know where exactly I'd put those commands, though, so that's why I
abstain from a merge request.

Without my workaround, I didn't even get that far, but it hanged before
the "Cleaning up" phase. I could reboot manually, though.

With the workaround, the upgrade completed including "Cleaning up".

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Jeremy Bícha]

Here's a screenshot from today, upgrading Ubuntu Desktop 23.04 to 23.10.
This is the screen where the upgrader asks to remove no longer needed
packages. It makes me very uncomfortable to have this screen be
unreadable.

I tested that approach. On an updated lunar I run this command:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Sans 11'

before doing "update-manager -d". The upgrade completed successfully
without font rendering issues.

So as a workaround I'm thinking that an equivalent of that command could
be added to the beginning of the main function in DistUpgradeViewGtk3.py
file (before the first "Gtk.main()" call), while the equivalent of this
command:

gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name

could be executed right before the computer is restarted.

Or maybe just a wrapper.

> What about this idea for a workaround: have the upgrader temporarily

That sounds as a reasonable idea. Maybe it would be sufficient to drop
the Ubuntu font as the first choice and simply let fontconfig deal with
it for everyone.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Jeremy Bícha]

This is a longstanding bug in our font stack. Things can go very bad
when a font in use is upgraded.

See for instance https://launchpad.net/bugs/1600160

It's not been noticed more recently because the Ubuntu font hasn't been
updated in a while. (And there is no longer an Ubuntu GNOME shipping the
Cantarell font by default.)

What about this idea for a workaround: have the upgrader temporarily
switch the UI font to a font that hasn't been changed since Jammy?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2034986] Re: some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade

[Brian Murray]

This isn't a problem with ubuntu-release-upgrader but rather something
with the desktop environment during the upgrade process so I've opened
an ubuntu-meta task.
