Bug ID: 526734
Summary: Disabling fonts isn’t working
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version First 6.7.5
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_fonts
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
It seems that generated file "/etc/fonts/disabledfonts.xml" holds the list of
renamed fonts from "fontName.ext" to ".fontName.ext".
But fonconfig is loading them even if they start with a point.
fc-list
/usr/share/fonts/noto/.NotoSansNagMundari-Bold.ttf: Noto Sans Nag
Mundari:style=Bold
/usr/share/fonts/noto/.NotoSansTamilUI-Regular.ttf: Noto Sans Tamil
UI:style=Regular
Even clearing the following cache dirs then running "fc-cache -fv" has no
effect:
~/.cache/fontconfig/
/var/cache/fontconfig/
So, the mechanism adopted by Plasma to disable fonts by adding a point at the
beginning is no longer reliable.
But if I created a test file in "/etc/fonts/conf.d/99-disabled-fonts.conf"
using "rejectfont" tag and then run "fc-cache -fv", it seems to effectively
disable the desired fonts:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "urn:fontconfig:fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<selectfont>
<rejectfont>
<glob>/usr/share/fonts/noto/.NotoSansCypriot-Regular.ttf</glob>
</rejectfont>
</selectfont>
</fontconfig>
