Description Laine Stump 2010-09-29 18:38:44 UTC
I've been using Lucida Typewriter for all my xterm and emacs windows since 1994. During the install of F14, I installed bitmap-lucida-typewriter-fonts, which, in previous Fedora releases, had given me the "Lucida Typewriter" selection in the font list for gnome terminal. But when I looked for it, it wasn't there. The font does show up in the output of "fc-list", and can be selected in emacs:

$ fc-list | grep Lucida
LucidaTypewriter:style=Sans Bold
LucidaTypewriter:style=Sans

Versions of relevant components:

pango-1.28.1-4.fc14.x86_64
bitmap-lucida-typewriter-fonts-0.3-16.fc14.noarch


How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install F14
2. yum install bitmap-lucida-typewriter-fonts
3. In any terminal window, go to Edit/Profile Preferences, unselect "Use the system fixed width font" and look for Lucida Typewriter in the list of available fonts.
  
Actual results:

  Lucida Typewriter is not in the list

Expected results:

  Lucida Typewriter should be in the list

Comment 1 Laine Stump 2010-10-06 06:05:46 UTC
After being an issue for several months before I filed the BZ, within a week of filing, something (not pango, I think) in a recent F14 update has fixed this problem.
