Created attachment 1652154 [details] Comparison of fonts Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Nom : mscore Version : 3.3.4 Publication : 4.fc31 Architecture : x86_64 Taille : 87 M Source : mscore-3.3.4-4.fc31.src.rpm Dépôt : @System Depuis le dé : updates some fonts do not render as expected in the picture have seen the difference between the official version and the Fedora version
We've tried to unbundle some fonts in Fedora; it is possible that broke something. I will try to debug the problem. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
I've tried undoing the font unbundling, and building all the fonts into the executable like upstream does. Nothing changed. As far as I can tell, MuseScore is just using a standard QFontComboBox for font selection. Can you try an experiment for me? Install the python3-qt5 package, if is not already installed. Copy the code at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Qt5-Python-GUI-Programming-Cookbook/blob/master/Chapter02/demoFontComboBox.py into a local file, say fonts.py. Run "python3 fonts.py". What do you see, fonts like the Fedora-built MuseScore, or fonts like the MuseScore appimage?
Created attachment 1654972 [details] image of demoFontComboBox.py thank you for your attention As you can see on the attached image, I see the fonts of MuseScore appimage and not that of Fedora This is particularly visible on C39 and Capella which are serif fonts
Fonts work in Flatpak https://github.com/flathub/org.musescore.MuseScore Using the demoFontComboBox.py program, I do not have the same results as Cornosier: - the dropdown list selector shows the fonts (unlike MuseScore) - The text's font does not change as I select different fonts in the dropdown list (like in MuseScore) I also have the error message qt.qpa.wayland: Wayland does not support QWindow::requestActivate() Python 3.8.2 python3-qt5-5.13.2-5.fc32.x86_64
More tests https://gitlab.com/snippets/1963052 My python program works! (I am not sure the original code is supposed to work? The currentFontChanged signal is not connected to any action in the original.) So Fonts are working. But as soon as I launch the program, I have this error: "QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread" Then only as I change the font, I have: "qt.qpa.wayland: Wayland does not support QWindow::requestActivate()" and it depends on the fonts too. But if I use "env QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb python3 fonts-test.py" I have no error message. In any cases, the program works, fonts are displayed.
Any update? Can we help somehow? Otherwise could it be possible to revert the packaging changes to get back the fonts? (Since PipeWire is not there yet, Flatpak is not an option.) Thanks
In the 3.4.2-4 It works. I guess the Qt 5.14.2 update solved the issue. I am closing this.
It seems that I do not have any privilege to modify this bug. Well, it does not seem to have worried anyone anyway.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 31 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 31 on 2020-11-24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '31'. 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 31 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.
Fedora 31 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-11-24. Fedora 31 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
