Package: emacs Version: 1:26.1+1-3 Severity: normal Tags: l10n Dear Maintainer,
Here are the steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Install fonts-knda so that all three available fonts are installed. 2. Note that, by default, emacs (at least my emacs) prefers to use Gubbi to render the font. This is an issue because specific characters are rendered badly (a bug in its own right, but not something I'm overly concerned with at the moment). 3. Try to fix this by inserting `(set-fontset-font "fontset-default" (cons (decode-char 'ucs #x0c80) (decode-char 'ucs #x0cff)) "Lohit Kannada")` in your .emacs file. 4. Run `emacs` and note that the font preference is (correctly) applied. 5. Run `emacs --daemon` and note that the font preference is not applied. 6. After starting the daemon, if I go to my .emacs and evaluate that line manually, the preference is applied. This occurs with both emacs-lucid and emacs-gtk. If there is some more debugging info I can provide, please let me know.
