Description Igor Vlasenko 2011-08-24 19:11:11 UTC
fonts.alias files refer to jisx020*.19??-0 font encodings while fonts.dir does not list them.
looks like a fonts.scale/fonts.dir generation bug.
/usr/share/X11/fonts/encodings/large/*
encodings should be present during fonts.scale/fonts.dir generation.

sazanami-fonts-0.20040629-15.fc15.src.rpm

Comment 1 Akira TAGOH 2011-08-25 07:38:55 UTC
Fixed in sazanami-fonts-0.20040629-16.fc17.

Comment 2 Igor Vlasenko 2011-08-26 15:46:18 UTC
> Fixed in sazanami-fonts-0.20040629-16.fc17.
Not yet. fonts.alias mentions jisx0208.1983-0 and jisx0201.1976-0 encodings, while 
fonts.dir use jisx0208.1983-0 and jisx0201.1990-0 encodings.
Replace s,jisx0201.1976-0,jisx0201.1990-0,g in fonts.alias to fix the bug completely.

Comment 3 Akira TAGOH 2011-08-29 07:38:38 UTC
Well, that is generated by ttmkfdir. reassigning to ttmkfdir then.

Comment 4 Pravin Satpute 2011-08-31 10:32:51 UTC
just checked sazanami-gothic.ttf

is it really supports JIS_X_0201?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JIS_X_0201 "7-bit and 8-bit coded character sets for information interchange" 

Just checked it by editing in fontforge, it shows me different characters than JIS_X_0201 at location 0xA1, 0xA2. (chart is available at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JIS_X_0201)

Comment 5 Akira TAGOH 2011-08-31 11:29:01 UTC
the character code like 0xA1 and 0xA2 isn't something mapped onto Unicode, but on JIS X 0201. and this is a character sets but not an encoding, those code doesn't necessarily matches to other encoding such as SJIS and EUC-JP.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 19:41:15 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 7 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 21:52:17 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 8 Pravin Satpute 2015-01-14 09:32:36 UTC

security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.
