Source: emacs25 Version: 25.2+1-6 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I've had a couple of issues with a couple of Kannada fonts. The first is Noto Sans Kannada (from fonts-noto-hinted). When I have the font installed, it is the default for rendering Kannada characters. However, certain characters (such as ಚು and ಕು) rendered in the font cause Emacs to completely crash with a segfault (I will add the exact output of the crash in a follow-up email). The second is Gubbi (from fonts-gubbi). This problem is hard to explain to someone who doesn't know Kannada, so I will attach pictures in to demonstrate. At least one font which works perfectly well (as far as I'm aware) is Lohit Kannada (from fonts-lohit-knda). -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.14.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
