Dejavu Fonts SCM Not Available in Opera

(1/2) > >>

SamK:
dejavu-fonts-ttf.scm installed.  The fonts are not available within opera9.scm.  Upon installing dejavu-fonts-ttf.tcz, they are available to opera9.scm.

tinypoodle:
Have you got the fontconfig and libxft extensions installed?

SamK:
Thanks for the revised SCM dated 2013/02/15.  Updating to this fixes the issue.

Jason W:
I modified the dejavu-fonts-ttf.scm to work with apps that don't use gtk2.scm.  Is this working without fontconfig.tcz installed?  Gtk2.scm has it's own fontconfig, and I so far only get these fonts in opera9 with fontconfig.tcz installed.  If this is the case, for now I can mention in the info file to install fontconfig.tcz to get full font access. 

SamK:
My initial tests of the newest dejavu-fonts-ttf.scm, and gtk2.scm were done on a system that had fontconfig.tcz installed, so they are not wholly valid.

Retest
TC v4.7.2 booted from CD-ROM (cloud mode) and apps downloaded as required.

dejavu-fonts-ttf.scm+opera9.scm=Dejavu not available
dejavu-fonts-ttf.scm+opera9.scm+gtk2.scm=Dejavu not available
dejavu-fonts-ttf.scm+opera9.scm+gtk2.scm+fontconfig.tcz=Dejavu available

I'm not sure about this.  It seems to negate the value of using the SCM.  If fontconfig.tcz is required in order to use the fonts, one might as well also use dejavu-fonts-ttf.tcz and thereby have system-wide access to the fonts.  Or have I missed your point?
