Inxi of an affected computer (as on 23 March 2025): Desktop: Cinnamon 5.8.4 Distro: Linux Mint 21.2 Victoria CPU Info: 6-core model: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Graphics: Device-1: NVIDIA GP108 [GeForce GT 1030] driver: nvidia v: 470.256.02
LibreOffice 7.3.7.2 FontConfig 2.13.1-4.2ubuntu5 is installed. I can confirm message #7 by Suppen Casper: removing libreoffice-gtk3 removes the "lag" of the LibreOffice Writer font menu (but makes the LibreOffice menu, like the right-click pop-up menu, somehow look "odd", "old-fashioned" - but workable). Any update/solution for this bug? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to fontconfig in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969709 Title: libreoffice font selection unusably slow Status in LibreOffice: Won't Fix Status in fontconfig package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Trying to scroll through the font list in the menu bar, I experience an unacceptable degree of lagging. Just popping up the dropdown list takes 7-10 seconds and the system takes the same amount of time to respond to perform individidual scrolling gestures. The CPU jumps to 100% and the whole system becomes unresponsive. I have tried deb, snap and even the packages offered on the site of the LibreOffice project. They all manifest the same behaviour. The only thing that works is disabling font previews. I have downgraded to 7.2 for now, which appears to be unaffected. I have contacted the LibreOffice team and they tell me that this should be solved by fontconfig 2.14. Unfortunately, Ubuntu 22.04 is shipping 2.13...
