Description w unruh 2019-05-05 04:16:11 CEST

Description of problem:
On installation of programs with urpmi, in this case it seemed to be the libreoffice suite, I got a large number of warnings like  


Fontconfig warning: "/usr/share/gontconfig/conf.avail/69-odofonts.conf", line 20: Having multiple <family> in <alias> isn't supported and may not work as expected.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Since I am not sure what program triggers this, all I can say is that this was a Mga7 beta 3 Live installation, which I am upgrading with other programs. 




How reproducible: I have sen this a number of times when fonts are installed.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.

I tried tracing where the file about (that's fontconfig, not gontconfig) and it is from fonts-ttf-chinese-opendesktop and when I installed that on another Mga7 system I have which did not have that installed, I got a huge number of warnings again

Comment 2 Marja Van Waes 2019-05-05 16:11:30 CEST

Thanks for having taken the trouble to file a bug report. I've seen those errors, too, since many months ago.

When I let google translate translate the upstream URL, then it seems it has become the website of a hair stylist :-(

I haven't managed to find a newer version, but others might be more succesfull

Assigning to all packagers collectively, because there is no registered maintainer.

Comment 3 w unruh 2019-05-06 02:21:58 CEST

When I run xclock -update 1 with the above fonts installed, I get the same large set of complaints as in comment 1. It seems that the only way out is to uninstall those fonts. Now that is not particularly disasterous for me, but it might be for some others.
