Recently created font problem - anyone see similar?
Hi, I found that the following patch, committed to CVS on 23/02/06 at 20:33:06 made all my Wine system fonts squashed up and unreadable, which in turn made a mess of formatting in some dialog boxes. I backed the patch out from a current tree and the problem went away. Anyone else see this behaviour? I am wondering what the purpose of this patch is as the fonts were quite OK before it was committed, and now they are completely unreadable on this system. Any thoughts before I submit a patch to put this back the way it was? John.

I had this problem too: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4682 I like the old behavior, and I don't like the solution of copying the fonts to the /usr/share/fonts because I want to be able to build WINE from source and run it from ~/wine without root permission (to install the fonts). Andrew

This usially means that you have no Wine bitmap fonts installed in windows/fonts. I sent a patch to wineprefixcreate to install them by default, by Alexandre rejected it. -- Dmitry.

I the same font problem (I think) - In firefox, everything shows ok but file-saving dialogs (and maybe more?) render blocks instead of letters; where should I find the fonts wine used before, and where are they placed? (it seems ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/fonts is the directory that is mentioned?) thanks, Joris
