Description

I presume that means there are no fonts currently available to display those glyphs I wouldn't necessarily consider that a bug. I was under the impression I had installed all fonts due to the output of: $ dnf group install -y with-optional fonts ... Group 'Fonts' is already installed, skipping. ... $ dnf group install -y with-optional legacy-fonts ... Group 'Legacy Fonts' is already installed, skipping. ... Just to be sure all fonts are installed I executed the following commands: $ dnf group mark remove fonts $ dnf group install -y with-optional fonts $ dnf group mark remove legacy-fonts $ dnf group install -y with-optional legacy-fonts $ reboot The list of affected locales shrinked to: zgh_MA, shi_MA gu_IN vai_LR After reinstalling my Fedora 22 machine from scratch I will update with my findings. After reinstalling F22 several times here are my findings. Using a kickstart installation with the section --8<-- %packages @^kde-desktop-environment @fonts --optional @legacy-fonts --optional chrony %end --8<-- $ kcmshell5 formats near the bottom: zgh_MA shi_MA wal_ET ti_ET am_ET ti_ER byn_ER tig_ER gu_IN chr_US vai_LR ii_CN en_US description shown as rectangular blocks Reinstalling using a kickstart file with the section --8<-- %packages @^kde-desktop-environment @fonts --optional chrony %end --8<-- $ kcmshell5 formats near the bottom: en_US description is displayed as empty spaces gu_IN description is displayed as rectangular blocks Reinstalling F22 manually using GUI and 'KDE Plasma Desktop' product results in the environment of the first post. However, after executing the commands as root: $ dnf install -y "*font*" && reboot # log in to Plasma session $ /usr/bin/fc-cache -fv $ kcmshell5 formats gu_IN description shown as rectangular blocks I could not find out which font package is missing with $ strace kcmshell5 formats or searching the internet for help. Do you have any pointers? Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
