Change font search path

Description

On Ubuntu, I don't get any labels when using GTK, even though I have some of the required fonts installed (LiberationMono?-Regular.ttf and DejaVuSans?.ttf). But the fonts are installed in /usr/share/fonts/liberation and /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu. Can these paths be added to the search list?

Possible patch:

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

This was implemented in CVS. But now the font handling now uses the fontconfig library, which makes these search paths redundant. See #4. Closing ticket.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
