Hmm, I got the impression it was only unreliable in returning the
correct font. For example, if I use "Monospace" it still returns me the
FreeMono font. I tried the alternative of using the ttf font directly,
using
pygame.font.Font("/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeMono.ttf") and
get the same problem.I'm sure I didn't have this problem on 11.10, and I do not have this problem with the "Ubuntu Mono" or any other mono fonts I have tried. OK, I just looked up the font separately, and it is only the latest FreeMono font that is having these troubles, found here: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/freefont/freefont-ttf-20100919.tar.gz If I download any of the older versions, they work perfectly, such as: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/freefont/freefont-ttf-20090104.tar.gz http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/freefont/freefont-ttf.tar.gz If you're sure it's not the font, then I'll go back to the pygame mailing list, and see if we can work out where the bug is. It's just odd that it only seems to occur with one version of one particular font. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1001033 Title: Monospaced font is not monospaced To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ttf-freefont/+bug/1001033/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
