Description Jens Petersen 2005-08-05 09:17:31 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #143941 +++

Description of problem:
Several encodings contained in TTF files are missed in the output file
"fonts.scale" generated by ttmkfdir on Fedora Core 3.

I found this problem accidentally by trying to select a font to make
xmms be able to display English and Chinese at the same time. I ended
up with the "fonts.scale" in /usr/share/fonts/zh_CN/TrueType/:

gbsn00lp.ttf -Arphic Technology Co.-AR PL SungtiL
GB-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-iso10646-1

I compared this file with the same one on Redhat Enterprise Linux 3.0 ES:

zysong.ttf -misc-ZYSong18030-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-iso10646-1

As you can see here, only two encodings are generated for gbsn00lp.ttf
and gkai00mp.ttf on FC3, while each of them has three encodings. More
interestingly the ttmkfdir on FC3 also only generate two encodings for
zysong.ttf:

zysong.ttf -misc-ZYSong18030-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-ascii-0
zysong.ttf -misc-ZYSong18030-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-iso10646-1

But zysong.ttf actually contains FIVE encodings!!!

Then I tried to use the RHEL3-version binary ttmkfdir to generate
fonts.scale on FC3 but I got a "segmentation fault" error. And the
compilation of ttmkfdir-3.0.9-6.src.rpm (from RHEL3) on FC3 failed!

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ttmkfdir-3.0.9-14

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On FC3, run the command: ttmkfdir -d
/usr/share/fonts/zh_CN/TrueType/ -o fonts.scale
2. The generated fonts.scale misses all actual chinese encodings!
3.

Comment 1 Jens Petersen 2005-08-05 09:21:00 UTC

This original bug 143941  was originally  files for Fedora Core,
then moved to RHEL... so here is a new bug for FC. :)
Sorry for the confusion.

Fixed packages for FC3 and FC4 are coming...

Comment 2 Rahul Sundaram 2005-09-05 06:05:45 UTC

Have the updates been released for this?

Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2005-09-14 09:35:36 UTC

Bug #143941 indicates that FC3/FC4 updates did go out for this.
