Description Artem S. Tashkinov 2019-10-29 22:36:02 UTC
I've just upgraded from F30 to F31 and most applications don't see the Terminus font: terminus-fonts-4.48-1.fc31.noarch

They are: mousepad, xfce4-terminal, leafpad, hexchat, featherpad, gucharmap and others.


The fonts are ostensibly cached and present:

# fc-cache -frsv | grep -i term
        /usr/share/fonts/terminus
/usr/share/fonts/terminus: caching, new cache contents: 36 fonts, 0 dirs
/usr/share/fonts/terminus: skipping, looped directory detected
        /usr/share/fonts/terminus
/usr/share/fonts/terminus: caching, new cache contents: 36 fonts, 0 dirs
/usr/share/fonts/terminus: skipping, looped directory detected

# fc-list | grep -i terminus | wc -l
36

# fc-validate /usr/share/fonts/terminus/* | grep "Satisfy the coverage for en language" | wc -l
Unable to open /usr/share/fonts/terminus/fonts.dir
36

I'm filing this bug under GTK3 since I don't really understand what the component is and I'm afraid the maintainers of fontcache/terminus-fonts won't help.

I've tried using the terminus-fonts package from F30 to no avail.

Meanwhile:

$ xlsfonts | grep -i terminus | wc -l
252

This is absolutely retarded :(

I abso-f*cking-lutely hate Gnome 3 developers.
