-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello, For some unknown reasons, WenQuanYi Zen Hei, a primarily Chinese font, somehow provides a Tofu-like white-square glyph for U+10000, named "hu10000" in the font. However, U+10000 is actually "LINEAR B SYLLABLE B008 A", a very ancient form of Greek, provided by proper Linear B fonts such as the "Noto Sans Linear B" in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/NotoSansLinearB-Regular.ttf in the fonts-noto-unhinted package. And, somewhat unfortunately, maybe due to the fontconfig files that come with fonts-wqy-zenhei, the wrong "Tofu" glyph in WQY ZenHei trumps the correct glyph in "Noto Sans Linear B". So, in summary, three issues: 1. Find a way to contact the upstream author? :-) 2. Fix the actual "WenQuanYi Zen Hei" TrueType font to remove U+10000. 3. Check its fontconfig file, say, 64-wqy-zenhei.conf, and see if we can stop WenQuanYi Zen Hei's erroneous U+10000 from trumping others? Cheers, Anthony - -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.8.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages fonts-wqy-zenhei depends on: ii dpkg 1.18.18 ii fontconfig 2.11.0-6.7 fonts-wqy-zenhei recommends no packages. fonts-wqy-zenhei suggests no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEFCQhsZrUqVmW+VBy6iUAtBLFms8FAlh/5MIACgkQ6iUAtBLF ms8f3A//YrKD6NhgectANgzXmuHtIxp41XLBjlikI9ibFsX6lY+kXhAdAOyU4FM6 7Pvid290qmbFzyrqZoX6uvl2kFHEVfeIESFuaeHLjhyxFnUKrHBVusyODgGydD4N ZjCBxHowH2dZXKXfEZ+546NNGVEmM0mPLRE4Rw3BhdZUDITXI8rmFTR9itt1vE+g ntzhdvQSocvyMW9ssQJDfM7UwLXp3fogo33mdajHy1lQIYlRtuvcOb+rl/nfMzvx lQsOa7wvsN3RaV6YpNGpLaZYT0PnGNDTMMky6Fcbrsv9yFtQoQB3czIDompVqKCY jgIOmUXfIzu3NqUGiVjDKPgeZ1Sg1a9JpexqdDd5/K+ugCzMX9rXDSbIzRQNTSht Zrj5RzAdZs6GLjol8xOOMTl9R5XS+5vBM3Jprr0hFE2ZwfkaOuEJYdlB7Ca45TAJ Qb+BI6pMtMxrUmkn6LpllSC4DI6fc4Geth3hVKaTSNyiH14fJbGy1bbheoIsgZeC cG0+7flVp0I6xn2RZW4sf6zcjmKj4G+Ah8ZWgzLuyBCFFCJqs3EfnB3+nv5RSJRU V+C+uBPzC/1aK7Wl+V2KlErZkqdVOWFhT7bs86yQsVsUE47ekCnLI4K1eCLFYiWf OYXhz87BWgMmN53S35+4d++9GjPbE/KTcx5k8jG+Jx084/Xvrzc= =ttTw -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
