Description Jens Petersen 2025-03-27 05:29:22 UTC

For some languages like CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean, but also Arabic I believe) the font that should be used to render text depends on the language.

Currently the new web installer is using Chinese font to render all CJK languages.
In particular Japanese, but also for Korean and Taiwan etc.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot up current F42 Workstation installer
2. turn on inspector with Ctrl+Shift+c
3. focus on language like Japanese (see above)
Actual Results:  
Noto CJK SC (Simplified Chinese) font is used for all CJK languages (locales).

Expected Results:  
Noto CJK JP should be used for Japanese
Noto CJK KR should be used for Korean
Noto CJK TW should be used for Taiwan
Noto CJK HK should be used for Hong Kong

(and Noto CJK SC should be still be used for China)

The text entries in the language selection should have a lang attribute set.
eg The Japanese entry should be 

<div id="language-item" lang="ja"><span>日本語 (日本)</span></div>

Similarly for Taiwan Chinese it should be:

<div id="language-item" lang="zh-tw"><span>繁體中文 (台灣)</span></div>

Note that HTML (web) langs/locales are different to Glibc locales (xx-yy not xx_YY).

It should be quite safe to have the lang attribute for all listed languages.

This is a regression compared to the old gtk installer.

Furthermore the lang attribute should also be set for all text following the language selection.

So that Japanese installation continues to use the Japanese font for it's text.
eg Back/Forward buttons should have the lang tag, but all of the other text.

If needed I can attach a screenshot or two to make it clearer.
