Bug ID: 371772
Summary: kfontinst stuck process/dialog after trying to install
multiple .otf fonts from Dolphin
Product: neon
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Packages User Edition
Assignee: neon-b...@kde.org
Reporter: arco...@gmail.com
CC: j...@jriddell.org, neon-b...@kde.org, sit...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Apologies if this is miscategorized, I wasn't sure where to put it as there is
no kfontinst category.
I ran into a number of issues trying to install fonts. I believe it has to do
with being unable to properly install multiple .otf fonts at once.
These were my steps:
* Downloaded this font pack: http://www.1001fonts.com/digitalstrip-font.html
* Extracted to /home/me/Downloads
* In Dolphin, CTRL selected all 3 .OTF files
* Right Click, Install, chose to install System-wide
* After typing password, got an error message (I forgot to jot down what it
said, but it basically said installation failed)
* So I tried doing it one-by-one.
* First font said "already installed". Second font installed successfully.
Third font, the installation dialog box with the progress bar perpetually
remained on my desktop for over an hour.. unable to cancel or close.
* Checked running processes in htop, there were two kfontinst processes stuck
and I had to force kill them.
If it makes any difference (doubtful), I had Krita open in the background at
the same time.
