Easy one. Install a proper font. xterm works because you have a bitmap X font installed that covers those chars.

I'd lean towards saying we should make things optional in comps rather than making explicit changes to the livecd, though from a maintenance point of view. Although I guess if we wanted to do it first on the livecd for F9 and then in general for F10 via comps, that'd be okay Jeremy ___ Fedora-fonts-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-list

If the apps not using fontconfig aren't marked as defaults, then it's probably not unreasonable. At least the bitmap fonts, we should probably finally take the plunge with Jeremy ___ Fedora-fonts-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-list

Here's the full list, AFAICT. The number to the left is the size of the package. I think a good chunk of this could be pruned. My advice would be: 1. drop every core fonts package except one to keep legacy users happy (probably xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-15-100dpi) 2. drop xorg-x11-fonts-Type1. Nothing in there not provided by more modern font packages 3. fonts-japanese is probably not 100% necessary when VLGothic is available 4. drop culmus — DejaVu full includes Hebrew no one complained of during the F9 cycle, so no need to keep a separate Hebrew font on a space-constrained media 5. Have the Arabic l10n group choose between kacst and paktype 6. Have the Indic l10n group sort the huge number of indic fonts, keeping only one package per script (sarai, lohit, smc, samyak) 7. Have the Chinese l10n group choose between cjkunifonts-uming and cjkunifonts-ukai 8. add dejavu-fonts-experimental — you *really* want the distro default fonts to have a complete face set, a lot of users will notice and complain otherwise I'm afraid most wins are in 3. 5. 6. 7., and they depend on l10n groups telling us their wishes, which unfortunately has not happened a lot so far. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Fonts/Triaging/L10N remains terribly incomplete.

Have the Indic l10n group sort the huge number of indic fonts, keeping only one package per script (sarai, lohit, smc, samyak) Lohit is what we prefer by default for Indic. Everything else can be deemed optional. Since they're all broken up by scripts now you probably want to be more specific, unless lohit provides every needed indic script and none of the others is necessary for coverage.
