Package: ttf-kochi-mincho Version: 1.0.20030809-4 X-debbugs-cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Severity: important
Let me tell you about the egregious package, ttf-kochi-mincho. Take this file, <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content= "text/html; charset=utf-8"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="zh-tw"> <title></title> </head> <body> <p>Compare:</p> <p lang="zh-tw"> 若您有任何問題或建議，請按此聯絡業務承辦人</p> <p> 若您有任何問題或建議，請按此聯絡業務承辦人</p> <h2 lang="zh-tw">經緯度查詢</h2> <h2>經緯度查詢</h2> </body> </html> Well, with ttf-kochi-mincho installed, the lines without lang="zh-tw" look terrible. With characters missing many pixels, e.g., 您, and 辦, so much that one cannot guess what character they are. MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 helps but the characters still look like they had mild polio disease. In the H2 example, 經 becomes very lightly colored unless you reduce size with CTRL-minus. Here MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 does not help. I don't know how to tell what fonts firefox is using other than arduous lsof|...|diff, which showed > /usr/share/fonts/truetype/arphic/bsmi00lp.ttf < /usr/share/fonts/truetype/kochi/kochi-mincho-subst.ttf So I purged ttf-kochi-mincho and finally my life is back to normal. As far as firefox "Preferences" goes, forget it, as one cannot find much matching names inside its cavernous caverns. As far as dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config goes, forget it as it doesn't seem to help. As far as everything else goes, forget it as it is all not clear. Anyway, I purged ttf-kochi-mincho and my life is back on track. I'm not sure what happens next time I need to read Japanese though. This may clear some of my previous firefox bugs, but I dare not judge that myself. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Locale: LANG=zh_TW.utf8, LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) ii defoma 0.11.10 Debian Font Manager -- automatic f -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
