Description of problem: When installing a Japanese font locally (using gnome font viewer, which effectively copies to ~/.local/share/fonts/), with the default fontconfig, all kana in the system uses that font. However, it only affects certain applications. Firefox (rpm) and Inkscape (flatpak) is affected, but gwrite is not. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fontconfig-2.14.0-3.fc37.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download the following font: http://font.sumomo.ne.jp/fontdata-c2157415/k-font.zip 2. Unzip and install by double-clicking the font in nautilus and clicking install. 3. Restart Firefox or Inkscape and paste "です” in a field with sans-serif or system-ui font Actual results: Text appears with the new font Expected results: Text appears with the normal system font Additional info: Running pango-view, e.g. the following, works fine and selects a reasonable font (Droid Sans Japanese): FC_DEBUG=4 pango-view --font="system-ui" -t です | grep family
Well, it seems the dead link. What's the family name in that font? If you are sure it happens with system-ui generic alias and then result is different between fc-match and applications, you should report it to those applications first. Strictly speaking, they may have more additional parameters to query a font. you may need to try it in the same condition. otherwise the result could be different.
Does this still happen on f38 or f39? there are nothing detailed information to take a look at this. it is quite hard to fix. This may be closed shortly otherwise.
