Bug ID: 1889049
Summary: blender-fonts installs droidsans.ttf as DejaVu Sans
Product: Fedora
Version: 32
Status: NEW
Component: blender
Assignee: luya_tfz(a)thefinalzone.net
Reporter: lantw44(a)gmail.com
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: design-devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org,

Target Milestone: ---
Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
blender-fonts installs /usr/share/fonts/blender/droidsans.ttf as DejaVu Sans,
causing fontconfig to choose it instead of
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu-sans-fonts/DejaVuSans.ttf when an application requests
DejaVu Sans. This is unlikely an expected behavior. blender-fonts should not
steal the font name of the other package.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
blender-fonts-2.83.5-5.fc32.noarch
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run fc-match 'DejaVu Sans'
Actual results:
droidsans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Regular"
Expected results:
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Regular"
Additional info:
droidsans.ttf seems to contain a lot of glyphs copied from Droid Sans Fallback.
I don't like CJK glyphs of Droid Sans, so I have the following lines in
/etc/fonts/local.conf to prevent fontconfig from choosing it:
<selectfont>
<rejectfont>
<glob>/usr/share/fonts/google-droid-sans-fonts/DroidSansJapanese*</glob>
<glob>/usr/share/fonts/google-droid-sans-fonts/DroidSansFallback*</glob>
</rejectfont>
</selectfont>
droidsans.ttf surprised me by displaying
https://discourse.gnome.org/ with
Droid Sans Fallback glyphs even if Firefox told me it was using DejaVu Sans. It
took me about an hour to realize it was blender-fonts that caused the problem.
