I am trying to track down a font problem with MuseScore: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1790829
The problem is that everything is displayed in Cantarell, no matter which font the user actually selects. In the style menu, one can pop up a list of fonts to choose from, and even though every font on the system is displayed by name, the text samples are all displayed in Cantarell. I spent several hours with GDB trying to figure this out (which is how I was able to determine that Cantarell is the font we're always looking at), but I still don't understand what is happening. It finally dawned on me that I'm running a GNOME desktop, but MuseScore is a Qt application. So I logged out, logged into a KDE Plasma session, and (drum roll please) all of the fonts displayed correctly. The bug submitter pointed out that if one downloads the AppImage created by MuseScore upstream, that displays all of the fonts correctly. Even on my GNOME desktop, that is true. The fonts are all correct. I can see that all of the Qt and X libraries are baked into the AppImage, but why does that matter? Does anybody have experience with this sort of thing? It would be nice if we could display the fonts correctly when running on a GNOME desktop.
