Description Joseph Shraibman 2009-12-11 01:15:49 UTC 
Description of problem:
I did a yum update and discovered emacs was using the Baekmuk Gulim font.  Code editing needs to be done in a fixed-width font!  Baekmuk Gulim is not fixed-width. Directory listings look horrible because the fields are not aligned.  I changed my emacs settings back and everything is fine for me now, but I bet a bunch of people will have no idea what font to change back to.  I was only able to figure it out because I had an emacs running from before the yum update.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fontconfig-2.8.0-1.fc11.x86_64
Comment 1 Jens Petersen 2009-12-11 10:16:33 UTC 
Can you please attach the yum.log showing the transaction?
Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2009-12-11 10:17:25 UTC 
How about removing baekmuk*fonts?
Comment 3 Behdad Esfahbod 2009-12-11 10:59:26 UTC 
What's the output of "fc-match -v monospace"?

And, what language?

Well I was mostly wondering why you have font installed.
Did you install Korean support?

I meant you could remove baekmuk-ttf-gulim-fonts as root
with "yum remove baekmuk-ttf-gulim-fonts" even all baekmuk*fonts.
(For Korean un-core actually provides better fonts.)
That doesn't solve any supposed problem of course
but might be a workaround at least.
Comment 7 Joseph Shraibman 2009-12-14 05:14:03 UTC 
I'm not sure why the fonts are installed. This computer has been upgraded from one Fedora version to another for a long time.

I just removed the fonts and remmed out the part of my .emacs that set the font and the problem went away. I then reinstalled them and the problem came back.
Comment 8 Jens Petersen 2009-12-14 07:11:08 UTC 
Yes I can reproduce also on F12, and reverting to
fontconfig-2.7.3 fixes the problem.

(For me baekmuk-ttf-gulim-fonts got pulled in
by the openoffice.org langpack for Korean FWIW.)
Comment 9 Akira TAGOH 2009-12-14 08:52:56 UTC 
This issue is easily reproducible with fc-match "monospace:lang=en" though, there are two things introduced in 2.8.0:

1. the above command matches lang="ko" too
2. Baekmuk Gulim has been added to the pattern with the strong binding somehow. which has ever been added with the weak binding.
Comment 10 Nicolas Mailhot 2009-12-14 09:41:54 UTC 
also let's remember that emacs only switched to the same font engine as everyone else recently

Ah right you are.

I noticed that 
'fc-match "monospace:lang=m"' => Lohit-Telugu.ttf
which seems a bit weird too.
Comment 12 Jens Petersen 2009-12-15 00:53:02 UTC 
I am not sure what the expected behaviour should be.
Does lang= assume/require a full lang-region?

fc-match "monospace:lang=ja" -> gulim

fc-match "monospace:lang=ja-" -> vlgothic
Comment 13 Behdad Esfahbod 2009-12-15 02:47:16 UTC 
The /etc/fonts/conf.d/66-lohit-*.conf files are awfully broken.  Instead of matching on target="pattern" they match on font patterns.  Which means, they replace any font that supports any of those Indic languages.

Plus, they do prepend_first, which is fascistic.

Nicolas, you really should do an audit of those conf files.
Comment 14 Jens Petersen 2009-12-15 03:23:16 UTC 
Ok but what about Baekmuk Gulim?

You are talking about different issue. this issue happens without lohit-*-fonts packages installed.  That should be filed as separate bug.

Plus, in fact this is a kind of regression that not happening in 2.7.3, reassigning back to fontconfig again.

FWIW I'm planning to file a bug to the font packages for the audit of their fontconfig config files.
Comment 16 Behdad Esfahbod 2009-12-15 05:06:01 UTC 
Humm. Seems like I'm wrong.  Default match target is pattern, not font.  Let me investigate this futher.  prepend_first is still discouraged.
Comment 17 Behdad Esfahbod 2009-12-15 05:07:08 UTC 
Without lohit config and with Baekmuk Gulim though, I get the expected result:

[root@behdad conf.d]# fc-match "monospace:lang=m"
DejaVuSansMono.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Book"
[root@behdad conf.d]# rpm -q fontconfig
fontconfig-2.8.0-1.fc12.i686

*** Bug 548390 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 20 Akira TAGOH 2010-02-02 11:26:00 UTC 
This might be the configuration file issue in 65-baekmuk-ttf-gulim.conf. as I pointed out current behaviour in the list [*1] and due to the issue we have in Bug#518161 too perhaps dunno, comparing the lang with 'ko' behaves wrongly in current implementation of fontconfig at least. modifying like the following works expectedly:

<test name="lang">
  <string>ko-kr</string>
</test>

FYI

*1 - http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2009-November/003275.html
Comment 21 Jens Petersen 2010-02-02 16:42:55 UTC 
Behdad said he would look into the lang= issues but
maybe we should reassign to baekmuk-ttf at least as
a workaround for f13?
Comment 22 Akira TAGOH 2010-02-03 04:01:07 UTC 
maybe. we could clone this to keep both on track.
Comment 23 Jens Petersen 2010-04-22 02:45:38 UTC 
This should be fixed by baekmuk-ttf-fonts-2.2-25.fc13 and
the result no binding="same" changes proposed by Tagoh-san.

So this is probably a duplicate of bug 578015.
