Description Miro Hrončok 2018-04-12 23:33:03 UTC

Description of problem:
When I upgraded to Fedora 28, this was in the scriptlet logs:
Fontconfig error: Cannot load config file from /etc/fonts/fonts.conf
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-hinting-slight.conf", line 5: invalid attribute 'selector'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-hinting-slight.conf", line 5: invalid attribute 'translate'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-hinting-slight.conf", line 6: invalid attribute 'version'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-hinting-slight.conf", line 6: invalid attribute 'xmlns:its'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf", line 5: invalid attribute 'selector'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf", line 5: invalid attribute 'translate'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf", line 6: invalid attribute 'version'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf", line 6: invalid attribute 'xmlns:its'
... snip (a lot more)

It appears now and then, for example with jupyter notebook

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fontconfig-2.13.0-3.fc28


How reproducible: easy (but there mind be an easier way)


Steps to Reproduce:
1. $ sudo dnf install python3-notebook
2. $ python3 -m notebook

Actual results: the above warnings and errors are in the output in terminal


Expected results: no warnings, no errors

I can't reproduce that. well, that's likely to happen only when you are running something with older library with new config. guess you use chrome as your default browser? I suppose chrome has own fontconfig in their runtime. in that case there are nothing I can do.

Comment 2 Miro Hrončok 2018-04-17 14:08:51 UTC

I use chromium from Fedora. Right, the messages are from the browser and not the notebook, sorry.

Comment 3 Tom "spot" Callaway 2018-04-17 21:05:41 UTC

Chromium uses fontconfig 2.12.6, we're on fontconfig 2.13.0.

I think I can safely use the system fontconfig in current chromium, this should resolve the issue. I have a build with that config going in rawhide now.

Comment 4 Parag Nemade 2019-04-10 03:36:17 UTC

I believe this is fixed already if not reopen it.
