Package: fontmatrix Version: 0.6.0+svn20100107-2+b2 Severity: important The manpage of fontmatrix claims:
"The definitive options are in the program's usage statement. Run: fontmatrix --help to view the usage statement." However running "fontmatrix --help" will start the main gui. In the gui, the "Help" option provides a page stating "Sorry, no manual is installed! Please contact your package provider or Fontmatrix team if you built the application yourself" There's no documentation in /usr/share/doc/fontmatrix or elsewhere in the package, and the manual and FAQ on the website are mostly empty. (Specifically, I'd love to get some information on how those filters work, and what/how exactly they match, because I'm trying to list all monospace/charcell spacing fonts on my system. This kind of thing is easy to do with xfontsel, but that doesn't know anything about truetype fonts. As an aside, is there an alternative to fontmatrix or font-manager? None of these seem to be able to filter monospace/charcell fonts. There used to be an application called gfontsel or gtkfontsel a few years ago, but I can't find it any more. fc-list :spacing=mono;fc-list :spacing=charcell works of course, but doesn't give me a graphical display.) -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'karmic'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to de_DE.utf8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages fontmatrix depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.4.2-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-4 GCC support library ii libicu44 4.4.1-6 International Components for Unico ii libm17n-0 1.6.1-1 a multilingual text processing lib ii libpython2.6 2.6.6-6 Shared Python runtime library (ver ii libqt4-network 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 network module ii libqt4-sql 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 SQL module ii libqt4-sql-sqlite 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 SQLite 3 database driver ii libqt4-svg 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 SVG module ii libqt4-webkit 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 WebKit module ii libqt4-xml 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 XML module ii libqt4-xmlpatterns 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 XML patterns module ii libqtcore4 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 core module ii libqtgui4 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 GUI module ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 fontmatrix recommends no packages. fontmatrix suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Dipl.-Inform.
