Can someone look at this? Got it fixed on Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1945817 Thanks for the report - sounds reasonable to me Ack on this request. I've reflected this to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DefaultToNotoFonts BTW There are no alternative fonts for monospace. Abyssinica SIL is used for monospace. any idea or suggestions for that? Also Sans vs Serif? (In reply to Akira TAGOH from comment #4) > BTW There are no alternative fonts for monospace. Abyssinica SIL is used for > monospace. any idea or suggestions for that? I think that's fine. Monospace isn't commonly used in my language anyways. (In reply to Jens Petersen from comment #5) > Also Sans vs Serif? I've thought about it, and I think Sans is better. After using it for a while, it seems cleaner and more readable. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 36 development cycle. Changing version to 36. This has been done in rawhide and f36. please check. How do I test f36? Couldn't find an image. Nvm. Found the Fedora openqa :) Canonical place should be this: https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/36/Workstation/x86_64/iso/ Finally got around to testing this. Works flawlessly. Thanks :) Something I noticed when testing the 36 beta which I didnt test previously was flatpak apps. They dont seem to respect this new change. What app did you try? Most flatpak apps I have Hm, that sounds like a flatpak runtime issue or flatpak app. flatpak is sharing fonts files on host but apparently there are no configuration provided by fonts packages which is important to decide the priority and then default fonts. The available font configuration files at flatpak app is something from packages only which flatpak runtime has. Steps to confirm this: 1. run flatpak app: flatpak run org.gnome.gedit 2. enter the sandbox: flatpak enter org.gnome.gedit sh 3. try to run fc-match there: fc-match sans-serif:lang=am 4. also try to see if Noto Sans Ethiopic is available: fc-match "Noto Sans Ethiopic" At step 3, fc-match returns FreeSerif which is available on flatpak app. At step 4, fc-match returns Noto Sans Ethiopic as requested which is available on host. It seems like an issue on my end. Sorry :) Works as expected when I tried it in a VM. |
