A page on Fedora Fonts


Fixing problems

We have a list of identified problems in Fedora or in the upstreams Fedora depends on. If you have the time and the skill, fixing them would help the Fedora text and font situation a lot.


Tagging problems
Problems are tagged by CC-ing the SIG bugs list when the upstream issue tracker allows it (any bugzilla) or by CC-ing a specific user (fedorafonts) otherwise.


Issue tracker Description Issues Tagging method and other comments
bugzilla.redhat.com Fedora package grouping (comps), specific Fedora code changes Problem list CC the bugs list
bugzilla.freedesktop.org Fontconfig, HarfBuzz, DejaVu, Freetype… Problem list
bugzilla.gnome.org Pango Problem list
bugs.kde.org KDE (Konqueror…) Problem list
bugzilla.mozilla.org Firefox, Thunderbird… Problem list
bugs.webkit.org Webkit Problem list
