Public bug reported: Binary package hint: fontconfig
When upgrading to jaunty from intrepid, the debconf configuration relating to bitmapped fonts stopped working (i.e. I suddenly got Vera Sans in my terminal, rather than jmk neep alt). I did a dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config, which worked in intrepid, and the option was there but disabled. Enabling it had no effect, and on running dpkg-reconfigure a second time I saw that my selection wasn't being stored / remembered. I ended up finding the right way (via removing no-bitmaps from /etc/fonts/conf.d -- thanks to asac for pointing out that I needed to close *all* gnome-terminal windows, and that I didn't need yes-bitmaps). The option still being present via debconf threw me off, however. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch) Release: 9.04 $ apt-cache policy fontconfig-config fontconfig-config: Installed: 2.6.0-1ubuntu12 Candidate: 2.6.0-1ubuntu12 Version table: *** 2.6.0-1ubuntu12 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- debconf options still present but not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349663 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
