https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1389683 --- Comment #23 from Fedora End Of Life --- This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '25'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ fonts-bugs mailing list -- fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to fonts-bugs-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1389683 --- Comment #21 from Akira TAGOH --- Well, the basic workflow to use fontconfig is, 1) set the query to FcPattern to get better fonts according to it, 2) and collect with FcConfigSubstitute() and FcDefaultSubstitute(), at this time, FcPattern will be modified/filled out other properties according to the font configurations in /etc/fonts/conf.d and $HOME/.config/fontconfig/conf.d. 3) then FcFontMatch() and FcFontSort(). target="pattern" rules will be applied at 2) and target="font" will be applied at 3). apparently GNOME doesn't add their own hintstyle in dconf at 2) stage. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ fonts-bugs mailing list -- fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to fonts-bugs-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org

I don't really know whether something was changed in Gnome, but if I understand things correctly, that symlink is new in fontconfig. So, maybe Gnome font support never had to deal with the situation where fontconfig sets slight and Gnome sets full.

What I'm saying is that I set hinting to full in Gnome, but it has no effect on Grome apps (e.g. terminal, evolution) if fontconfig has it set to slight. That looks like a Gnome bug to me.

To clarify, fc-match doesn't read the GNOME's configuration. if you see it "revert" to slight from that result, that isn't correct. assuming that you don't modify 10-hinting-slight and contains mode="append".

I wouldn't recommend to do that. Tried that. Doesn't work for Gnome, although I get: $ fc-match -v | grep hint hintstyle: 3(i)(w) hinting: True(s) autohint: True(w) Gnome uses slight, because that its default, it seems. So, here is what I don't understand. If I have that symlink to 10-hinting-slight in /etc/fonts/conf.d, Gnome will revert to slight, although I have it set to full explicitly. So, somehow slight is "stronger" and fonts get blurred. > > PS. Note that I also use autohinting, by symlinking 10-autohint.

Autohinting is affected by hintstyle as well, as far as I can see. Autohinted fonts look a lot better with full (or at least medium) hinting on. Anyhow, never mind. I can cut my own RPM that always removes that symlink on fontconfig upgrade. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ fonts-bugs mailing list -- fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to fonts-bugs-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org

You have to do. if you want to override the desktop's anyway, mode="assign" instead of "prepend" or "append" would do the job. though it may give you another confusion in the future.

Well, those configuration in /etc/fonts/conf.d doesn't override the desktop configuration if they have. the point is, there are applications doesn't follow the desktop's. they simply read the font configurations from fontconfig. both configurations should has consistency in that sense. but fontconfig as a lower layer library to desktops can't do that and desktops should be responsible IMHO. Anyway, good to check with fc-match -v | grep hint if you doubt some hinting configuration isn't applied. > PS. Note that I also use autohinting, by symlinking 10-autohint.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1389683 --- Comment #9 from Akira TAGOH --- As long as the applications support reading something via dconf or using APIs doing that in a library, it does. otherwise not. that's why fontconfig followed it up that way. ideally the configuration tools in desktops should update $HOME/.config/fontconfig/conf.d for non-desktop-native apps as well. I'm tired to hear an complaint about the sort of this causing inconsistency configurations between fontconfig and desktops. please request desktops to improve. For the permanent solution in user configuration, you can put this in $HOME/.config/fontconfig/conf.d choose from hintnone, hintslight, hintmedium, or hintfull what you prefer

The workaround works here as well. My question is, when fontconfig gets updated, that symlink will come back and screw up the rendering again, right? That sucks, especially given the fact that it somehow actually overrides what is set in dconf. Can we have that symlink whacked in the package, please?
