https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1382428 Bug ID: 1382428 Summary: International font function broken in packaged blender 2.7 Product: Fedora Version: 24 Component: blender Assignee: luya_tfz(a)thefinalzone.net Reporter: pswo10680(a)gmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: design-devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, hobbes1069(a)gmail.com, jochen(a)herr-schmitt.de, kwizart(a)gmail.com, luya_tfz(a)thefinalzone.net, promac(a)gmail.com Created attachment 1207982 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1207982&action=edit Packaged blender cannot support international feature well Description of problem: Blender supports internationalization since 2.6. I have downloaded official blender package myself, and the internationalization works well. I can change to "Traditional Chinese" language via checking "International Fonts" option in "File > User Preferences > System" dialogue, and then check "Interface" and "Tooltips" for my native language. However, the version distributed by Fedora cannot take this advantage of blender. If you open a terminal to launch blender, it will print out the message below:BLF_get_unifont: 'fonts' data path not found for international font, continuing BLF_get_unifont_mono: 'fonts' data path not found for international monospace font, continuing Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.77a How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. launch blender 2. check "International Font" option in System tab of File > User Preferences dialogue 3. select Traditional Chinese as the language 4. check "Interface" and "Tooltips" to translate them into localized ones Actual results: You see many characters in supported language list are displayed as squares. And nothing happened after you applied the localization changes. Expected results: The internationalization work of blender should work fine out of box as the official one. Additional info: This is a regression because it occurred before and fixed once.

Could you try this build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16142915 ?

It failed again. blender keeps complaining: BLF_get_unifont: 'fonts' data path not found for international font, continuing BLF_get_unifont_mono: 'fonts' data path not found for international monospace font, continuing I think blender has a default fixed font data path, and it just cannot find it where it should be.

The only difference is the official Blender is installed on the home directory while the packaged version for Fedora is on /usr/share directory. Despite applying the patch derived from the previous release, Blender still complains about the font path even though it is correctly set on "usr/share/fonts". Lets just use the effective workaround by uncompressing the Blender fonts until a better solution is found on the future fix. Reinstall Blender and its fonts http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16175398 Only the mono fonts path may fail for some reason but the translation for the interface should work. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Blender only picks the compressed font archives in its own data structure, that means you must place those font archives into /usr/share/blender/2.78/datafiles/fonts directory, and everything works well. Trying to separate those font archives and place them at /usr/share/fonts makes blender cannot use those fonts made for international usage. Furthermore, those fonts are derived works of droid sans (which means it use the same name as droid sans, but contains more glyphs from other international fonts besides western fonts). So users will receive unpredictable font display because the repeating font name will make fontconfig confuse. So the new packages you built does not improve the issue. Blender keeps complaining not finding those font archives in the place it expects, so those Chinese translations are STILL squares (tofus) even with your latest build. Even worse the blender-fonts package break the default font selection for Chinese environment. Before installation of the latest blender-fonts package you built, the default CJK font of Chinese is SourceHanSansTW-Regular.otf: "思源黑體 TW" "Regular". But after the installation, the default font changed to droidsans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book" (which blender provides). That introduces an regression. (you can use 'fc-match -s sans-serif' to check this in zh_TW locale) So what I suggest is not to uncompressed those font archives and see them as a part of blender because they are not designed to be used globally, but only as a fallback internatinoal font to display those translations internally in blender itself. If we must separate the font packaging, just intall them in /usr/share/blender/2.78/datafiles/fonts directory, then everything will works as fine as it should be. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I finally figured it out.

Trying to separate those font archives and place them at /usr/share/fonts makes blender cannot use those fonts made for international usage.

Thank you for explaining how Blender looks to the archived fonts. Fedora Guideline rules that no fonts should be outside the path */user/share/fonts/*. However, symlink that path may do the trick. I modified blender-fonts for that purpose and left these fonts uncompressed. Please reinstall blender-fonts from this build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16189344 And let know if that fix the issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
