Stuart, thank you for detailing how you approached and solved this problem.
I posted a similar bug (perhaps the same because while I'm using Gnome, I have KDE installed) and the only response I received is that that's what happens when you follow random articles and the internet and PEBCAKs are a learning experience we all go through. The year of linux clearly does not lie down that road. You response, on the other hand, was refreshingly helpful. Thanks for contributing to others. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2078589 Title: fight: desktop-base vs kubuntu-settings-desktop vs fontconfig-common: To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-settings/+bug/2078589/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
