Comment 2 Lillian Angel 2008-10-23 16:18:30 UTC
I have fixed this upstream. It will be in the next release.

*** Bug 467558 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 4 Qiao 2008-10-24 04:55:50 UTC
this bug will cause lots of Java application cannot display Chinese(like bug 467558), and I think it is necessary to add a patch to this package if icedtea6 1.4 won't be include in Fedora 10

Comment 5 Lillian Angel 2008-10-24 12:24:18 UTC
It will be in F-10.

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2008-11-03 05:28:23 UTC
So is it fixed in current rawhide now?

Comment 7 Qiao 2008-11-03 07:50:34 UTC
Yes, it have fixed and I test OK.

Comment 8 Qiao 2009-05-27 12:49:18 UTC
Java application like Netbeans cannot display Chinese character because chinese fonts package changed

file /usr/share/fonts/cjkunifonts-uming/uming.ttc in package cjkuni-uming-fonts
have moved to /usr/share/fonts/cjkuni/uming.ttc
file /usr/share/fonts/cjkunifonts-ukai/ukai.ttc in package cjkuni-ukai-fonts
have moved to /usr/share/fonts/cjkuni/ukai.ttc

Comment 9 Thomas Fitzsimmons 2009-06-19 00:53:01 UTC
I noticed the same behaviour in Emacs 23.  It couldn't display some Chinese
characters (specifically:

BIG5(元氣,開發)

and

Cantonese (粵語,廣東話)	早晨, 你好

in the HELLO file).

I also noticed the line:

FreeType: couldn't open face /usr/share/fonts/cjkuni/ukai.ttc: 1

repeated a bunch of times in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

yum install /usr/share/fonts/cjkuni/ukai.ttc

fixed both problems.

Comment 10 Jens Petersen 2009-06-19 01:14:18 UTC
But uming should be used by default for Chinese IMHO and that is what we install by default in Fedora.

You need to file a bug against netbeans or cjkuni-fonts to get this fixed.  I think for F10 maybe we need a compat symlink in cjkuni, Caius?  If not already?

Well missing font and changed font path are different issues. :)

Actually not F10, but for rawhide and f11?

Comment 13 Caius Chance 2009-06-19 01:33:42 UTC
AFAIK according to Mailhot, this is planned to let all packagers to aware the latest Font Packaging Changes (i.e. package name and path change in this case). 

I could always create such symlinks to cjkuni-fonts-compat quickly. However, if packagers are not aware that cjkuni-fonts-compat is needed for symlinks, situation will not be resolved still.

Comment 16 Nicolas Mailhot 2009-06-19 07:47:46 UTC
Actually, this kind of symlink does not belong in the font package IMHO, it's apps that do not use fontconfig that should carry the burden of pointing to the actual file on the filesystem. That will hopefully motivate them to move to our primary font stack.

I'll release soonish a repo audit script that detects when such symlinks are broken (I've been tweaking it those past two weeks)
