Package: xfdesktop4 Version: 4.6.1-1 Severity: minor Tags: sid
After selecting Applications->Settings->Appearance, and modifying the "Default Font" on the Fonts tab, I have been using Liberation Sans (11 pt) as my default font. Occasionally, after logging out and back in, Xfce starts up without honoring this selection of default font. (This has never yet happened when first booting the machine, but only after logging out and back in.) Some other font with a much smaller point size -- maybe the default for Xfce if no config files are present in $HOME -- is sometimes used. If I right-click, select Desktop Settings, click the Icons tab, then check and uncheck the "Use custom font size" checkbox, Xfce realizes that it is supposed to be using Liberation Sans. (That checkbox defaults to 12 pt, but when I uncheck it I get the desired Liberation Sans 11 pt.) This is merely an annoying, but obviously something is not working the way it should and I thought I should report it as a bug. It is a great mystery to me that my custom "default font" setting is always respected the first time I log in, but randomly fails to be recognized if I log out and back in again! I wasn't sure whether to file this against 'xfdesktop4' or 'xfce4-settings', so I made the best guess I could. How can a user know which Xfce package to file a bug against, with it split up into so many separate pieces? (For example, there are missing icons in the applications menu, and also in the dialog box when moving files from one drive to another. Are these bugs in Xfce packages, or the icon theme package?) -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (350, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.34-rc6+drt100429.7a1ffce.desktop.kms (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xfdesktop4 depends on: ii exo-utils 0.3.106-1 Utility files for libexo ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.10.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.86-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexo-0.3-0 0.3.106-1 Library with extensions for Xfce ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.1-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-1+xidfix The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 2:1.0.6-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.0-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 2:1.1.1-1 X11 Session Management library ii libthunar-vfs-1-2 1.0.1-4 VFS abstraction used in thunar ii libwnck22 2.30.0-2 Window Navigator Construction Kit ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-3 X11 client-side library ii libxfce4menu-0.1-0 4.6.1-1 freedesktop.org compliant menu imp ii libxfce4util4 4.6.1-2 Utility functions library for Xfce ii libxfcegui4-4 4.6.3-2 Basic GUI C functions for Xfce4 ii libxfconf-0-2 4.6.1-2 Client library for Xfce4 configure ii xfce4-panel 4.6.3-1 The Xfce4 desktop environment pane ii xfdesktop4-data 4.6.1-1 xfce desktop background, icons and ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages xfdesktop4 recommends: ii dbus-x11 1.2.24-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii gamin 0.1.10-2+b1 File and directory monitoring syst ii librsvg2-common 2.26.3-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii xdg-user-dirs 0.12-1 tool to manage well known user dir ii xfce4-utils 4.6.1-2 Various tools for Xfce Versions of packages xfdesktop4 suggests: ii menu 2.1.43 generates programs menu for all me -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
