GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 710538
broken fonts when pango-graphite is installed
Last modified: 2013-11-15 12:03:54 UTC
I am experiencing some issues. Like without me actually changing anything, my fonts are broken for some applications (most of them) and not for other (rxvt). See this http://i.imgur.com/ubVvr53.png As you can see, rxvt there is the only application with normal fonts. The Terminal application from Xfce suite is for some inexplicable reason using some kind of proportional font. See that the font in the Terminal Preferences is set to Liberation Mono. Also, please notice how in the Choose Terminal Font dialog the Courier New font Preview is not Courier New. See also <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pango-graphite/+bug/1166125>
pango-graphite is not part of pango or gnome.
These days, you should just build HarfBuzz with Graphite enabled, and forget about pango-graphite.
