Christian uploaded before I got ideas about doing it in a better way :) I've been thinking about it, and perhaps we can indeed make cdebconf instead increase a value in some /etc/gtk-2 file, which gtk-set-font would add to its default "9" value. We'd then have to make cdebconf_gtk_di_run_dialog run gtk_rc_reparse_all_for_settings(). > Also, picking a random non-default language like Chinese or Dzongkha, > then increasing the font leads to G_IS_OBJECT assertion failure and > localechooser fails with error 1 (going back to the language selection). Ah, I had tested that, but didn't realize it was still posing problem. This seems very odd, and it seems to me like some bug deeper somewhere. I initially just modified gtkrc and called gtk_rc_reparse_all_for_settings(), but the next choice being made would get the kind of assertion failure you are talking about. I added the cdebconf_gtk_set_answer_notok() call to make sure to restart the question with the new size (which is needed anyway to recompute the layout). Samuel
