Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to fontconfig in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1416768 Title: Fontconfig error output due to malformed conf file Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Incomplete Status in fontconfig package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Generating new string page texture 121: 256x256, total string texture memory is 393.22 KB Generating new string page texture 122: 128x256, total string texture memory is 2.79 MB Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf", line 70: non-double matrix element Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf", line 70: non-double matrix element Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf", line 78: saw unknown, expected number Generating new string page texture 136: 2048x256, total string texture memory is 4.88 MB Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steamwebhelper)/version(20150130171142) Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steamwebhelper)/version(1422637902) Above output is produced, eg by steam when running a game. The fontconfig error lines can be verified with "fc-cache -v | grep -i err". The offending section is around original lines 70, 78: <match target="font"> <test name="scalable" compare="eq"> <bool>false</bool> </test> <test name="pixelsizefixupfactor" compare="not_eq"> <double>1.0</double> </test> <edit name="matrix" mode="assign"> <times> <name>matrix</name> <matrix> <name>pixelsizefixupfactor</name> <double>0</double> <double>0</double> <name>pixelsizefixupfactor</name> </matrix> </times> </edit> <edit name="size" mode="assign"> <divide> <name>size</name> <name>pixelsizefixupfactor</name> </divide> </edit> </match> Note that the <matrix> element has 2 <name> child elements when it should only have 1. Removal of the second "<name>pixelsizefixupfactor</name>" solves the error. After this removal neither fc-cache nor steam report an "Fontconfig error:". The documentation for fonts.conf, eg http://linux.die.net/man/5/fonts- conf, suggests that the <matrix> element should hold 4 <double> elements: ><MATRIX> > >This element holds the four <double> elements of an affine transformation. But it appears not to produce an error when only 2 elements are present (and does produce an error here when there are 4, for me).
