Bug ID: 478549
Summary: Nerd fonts are not rendered on plasma 6 when using
detached font
Classification: Applications
Product: konsole
Version: 24.01.80
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: font
Assignee: konsole-de...@kde.org
Reporter: m...@heyi7086.com
Target Milestone: ---
On plasma 6, kde applications cannot render nerd fonts (PUA), if:
* font is set to monospace
* Nerd font is installed separately instead of a patched font, i.e.
ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-mono on arch
* "Symbols Nerd Font Mono" is preferred in fontconfig, e.g.
```
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<alias>
<family>monospace</family>
<prefer>
<family>Symbols Nerd Font Mono</family>
<family>hack</family>
</prefer>
</alias>
</fontconfig>
```
The exact same configuration works on plasma5, but not on plasma6.
This applies to both konsole and kate, haven't tested other kde applications
but I'd assume the same result.
Non-kde applications like foot, wezterm works as expected (fonts rendered).
When using a patched nerd font instead of detached nerd font symbols (e.g.
ttf-hack-nerd), fonts are rendered correctly.
related package:
ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-mono 3.1.1-1
kde-unstable/konsole 24.01.80-1
kde-unstable/kate 24.01.80-1
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. install said package
2. set konsole font to monospace
3. echo '\xEF\x90\xBA'
OBSERVED RESULT
tofu
