This isn't just a ttf-freefont problem -- none of the font packages, not xfonts-* nor ttf-* nor scripts like msttcorefonts, are adding themselves to the font list visible to X. Reassigning to fontconfig as a more general fonts-under-X package.
** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: ttf-freefont => fontconfig ** Summary changed: - freefonts don't show up in hardy + newly installed fonts don't show up in hardy ** Description changed: + In Hardy (beta), no fonts installed after the initial X installation are + visible via the X font mechanism. Installing the same font packages in + gutsy and feisty do add fonts to X. + Binary package hint: ttf-freefont apt-get install ttf-freefont Then look for free* in gtkfontsel or xfontsel. They showed up under gutsy, but not on hardy beta. (I have a fairly minimal install (from debootstrap), so it may be that the problem is a missing dependency. -- newly installed fonts don't show up in hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212669 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
