Description Martin Whitaker 2019-03-17 17:00:01 CET

In the update to GNOME 3.32, the default monospace font for the GNOME desktop has been changed from "Monospace" to "Source Code Pro". The new font does not appear to be available in Mageia. The font that fontconfig falls back to is almost illegible.

Either the Source Code Pro font needs to be imported into Mageia and added as a dependency, or the default needs to be changed.

Should be fixed importing fonts-otf-adobe-source-code-pro in Cauldron and adding it as a recommended package in gsettings-desktop-schemas.
