Description han pingtian 2005-11-14 08:58:02 UTC

Description of problem:
I have a FC4 system updated from FC3. And I update it to most new packages.
But when I change the default lang to en_US.UTF-8, every time when I boot the
system, It says: "Setting default font (latarcyrheb-sun16):utf8:no such file or
directory.   [failed]". And When I login the console as root and type
"unicode_start latarcyrheb-sun16 utf8", it also prints "utf8:no such file or
directory."

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kbd-1.12-10

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.change defautl language to en_US.UTF-8
2.reboot and login at console as root
3.type "unicode_start latarcyrheb-sun16 utf8"
  
Actual results:
utf8: no such file or directory

Expected results:
success

Additional info:
my i18n:
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
#LC_MESSAGES="en_US"
SUPPORTED="zh_HK.UTF-8:zh_HK:zh:zh_CN.GB18030:zh_CN:zh:zh_TW.UTF-8:zh_TW:zh:en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"
SYSFONTACM="utf8"

Comment 1 Miloslav Trmač 2005-11-14 14:35:47 UTC

SYSFONTACM should not be unset or empty, not "utf8".  What did you use to change
the default language?  system-config-language, manual editing, or some other
tool?

Comment 2 han pingtian 2005-11-15 00:26:05 UTC

I use system-config-language.So the "utf8" is wrong?

Comment 3 Miloslav Trmač 2005-11-15 00:29:01 UTC

Yes, please set SYSFONTACM="".

Looking at the code, s-c-language correctly replaces "utf8" by "" when creating
a new file, but leaves "utf8" in place when changing an existing file.

Comment 4 Christian Iseli 2007-01-22 11:46:27 UTC

This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.

Comment 5 han pingtian 2007-01-22 14:19:49 UTC

OK, I think that this issue wouldn't appear in last Fedora release. Please close
it. Thanks.
