I tried building and debugging fontconfig with confusing results. If I deactivate HAVE_FT_GET_BDF_PROPERTY when building (i.e. setting it to 0 in config.h), the so modified fc-cache finds the cyrillic fonts, but they still do not work: %./fc-cache -vf /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts: caching, new cache contents: 0 fonts, 11 dirs /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi: caching, new cache contents: 1894 fonts, 0 dirs [...] /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic: caching, new cache contents: 82 fonts, 0 dirs [...] The vanilla fc-cache bails out in src-fcfreetype.c:1670 trying to get the "PIXEL_SIZE" property, but not finding it, so it discards the font. Though I do not know if this is a hint for the source of the problem or just a red herring. Mind also the /big/ (1500!) difference for 100dpi fonts. The 100dpi directory indeed contains 1894 font files. >How-To-Repeat: install x11-fonts/xorg-fonts-cyrillic (usually done via the x11-fonts/xorg-fonts metaport) and try to look at cyrillic text in xterm or look at the output of fc-cache -v >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
