Guess what (again)? Now, after performing the following upgrade: [UPGRADE] fontconfig 2.6.0-1 -> 2.6.0-3 [UPGRADE] fontconfig-config 2.6.0-1 -> 2.6.0-3 [UPGRADE] libfontconfig1 2.6.0-1 -> 2.6.0-3 I am experiencing this bug on all my testing boxes (new and old, no matter when they were originally installed). I cannot see any Asian font on any of my Debian testing boxes! :-( I took a look at recent fontconfig change-log entries and I saw many changes related to bitmap fonts. I noticed that all my testing boxes now have bitmap fonts disabled: $ ls -l /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 2008-11-30 15:30 /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf -> /etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-no-bitmaps.conf Hence, I thought that maybe I should try and enable bitmap fonts. I tried to # cd /etc/fonts/conf.d/ # rm 70-no-bitmaps.conf # ln -s ../conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf ./ but, even after restarting X, no enhancement was visible. As a consequence, I restored the previous 70-no-bitmaps.conf link... *Help*! May I have some sort of maintainer response, please? -- On some search engines, searching for my nickname AND "nano-documents" may lead you to my website... .....................................................
