Bug ID: 2068726 Summary: Culmus Hebrew fonts aren't usable by TeXLive after installation Product: Fedora Version: 35 Status: NEW Component: culmus-fonts Assignee: pnemade@redhat.com Reporter: nikita@leshenko.net QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, petersen@redhat.com, pnemade@redhat.com, psatpute@redhat.com, vishalvijayraghavan@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Link ID: Red Hat Bugzilla 1919932 Classification: Fedora
Description of problem: On a clean Fedora 35 after installing texlive, babel-hebrew, and tex-fonts-hebrew, I can't use pdflatex to render a Hebrew document.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): texlive 9:2021-48.fc35 texlive-babel-hebrew 9:svn30273.2.3h-48.fc35 tex-fonts-hebrew 0.1-35.fc35
How reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start a new Fedora 35 container: podman run -it fedora:35 2. dnf install texlive texlive-babel-hebrew tex-fonts-hebrew 3. Try to render hello.tex document listed below (this is a basic Hebrew document) using pdflatex (pdflatex hello.tex).
\documentclass{article} \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} \usepackage[english,hebrew]{babel} \begin{document} שלום! \end{document}
Actual results: Blank PDF
Expected results: PDF with Hebrew text
Additional info: On Fedora 33 this document caused an error, on Fedora 35 something changed and the error no longer appears, but the result is a bad document.

--- Comment #1 from Matan Ziv-Av matan@svgalib.org --- Culmus fonts were moved from /usr/share/fonts/culmus/ to a single directory for each font family, such as /usr/share/fonts/clm-aharoni-fonts/.
The spec file for tex-fonts-hebrew package was not updated accordingly, so it fails to create the tex font file, resulting in empty font files, and thus blank hebrew letters.
As a workaround, use tex-fonts-hebrew from Fedora 34 or older, which you can download from here: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/tex-fonts-hebrew/0.1/34.fc34/no...

--- Comment #3 from Aoife Moloney amoloney@redhat.com --- This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 37 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 37 on 2023-12-05. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a 'version' of '37'.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora Linux 37 is end of life.

--- Comment #4 from nik nikita@leshenko.net --- This bug is still relevant for Fedora 39, we just get a slightly different error message. I repeated the steps outlined in the bug report:
1. Start a new Fedora 35 container: podman run -it fedora:39 2. dnf install texlive texlive-babel-hebrew tex-fonts-hebrew 3. Try to render hello.tex document listed above
And this time got a new error:
! LaTeX Error: Unicode character ש (U+05E9) not set up for use with LaTeX.
Updating version so this won't get closed.

--- Comment #6 from nik nikita@leshenko.net --- The package tex-fonts-hebrew is dead as of Fedora 40, so I won't update the version.
