Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue
for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
I mark it
I did
cd /usr/local/lib
sudo rm libpango*
(to remove all files with name beginning by libpango)
cd /usr/local
sudo rm -r pango
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libpango1.0-0 libpango1.0-common
cd /home/myuser/
checked which files were with pango in the name, with
ls -a
then did
sudo rm -r
Thanks again for the prompt replies and help.

I'll confirm the problem. I was doing automatic updates and was
updating to Ubuntu 8. I have nothing but squares/rectangles where the
text should be. When I type in firefox or the terminal (only able to
start by looking at the icon) the fonts are fine. All dialog boxes,
including any config
I solved my issue, after trying several things gathered on lots of locations,
which did not work :
I just desinstalled pango, then removed all pango-related files under
/usr/local/lib before reinstalling pango...
Let me say that I simply could not believe it !

Thanks for the fast reply. Is there a way to uninstall pango from the
terminal? If so, would you know the command structure?
Thanks.

I have something not cosmetic at all, with all the gutsy menus'texts as
squares, the only place I know that can handle still normal fonts is the
terminal.
If I launch gedit from term, it goes on showing 3 Pango-WARNINGs :
failed to find shape engine for script = 'latin' and script = 'common',
alright so i have this bug as well on my laptop, but it isnt cosmetic, i
cant see anything, its all squares
when i open a terminal the type in the terminal is legible but nothing
else
also i am on hardy

Ok, what made you change the importance back up?? lol
[totally off topic]
Bryce how is the new displayconfig-gtk going?
Any progress with it, or wont it be in Hardy?

Obviously, this is a cosmetic issue so listing it as Critical seems way
too extreme. I've dropped it to Low.
Also, while this certainly sounds like a legitimate bug, given that only
two users are reporting it, this really doesn't seem appropriate to be
milestoned.

Yes, I would expect it too, but havent seen anymore users complaining,

so there have been only two reports of this bug since December (and one
of them referring to different issues of ugly fonts)? If fonts were
generally broken after a fontconfig upgrade from default gutsy to
default hardy, we should generally expect a lot more confirmations of
this bug.
Fernando,
I am someone else =)
Well, the fonts in skype are ugly (no antialiasing), in Firefox monospace
turned to 6px. Workaround - turn back to *fontconfig* from gutsy.

yes, it should be kept open.
maybe someone else will suffer from this problem, until it is truly fixed.
