Hello, After wondering for months why the default font for users choosing the Catalan language in GDM was an ugly FreeMono monospaced font, keithp pointed out that fontconfig discards Bitstraem Vera because it's missing a glyph for Catalan. The offending character is "ˇ", used in common desktop words like "Cancel" "Cancelˇla". It's UTF U+013f/U+0140, according to Keith. Providing the mdidle-dot alone would be ok too. What are the chances of seeing this glyph supported in newer versions of Bitstream Vera? Am I directing this wishlist bug report to the correct place, anyway? :) FWIW, Welsh folks are also seeing the ugly font as they are missing a pair of glyphs for their language too (W with grave, acute and diaersis). Daf should be able to provide more info, I guess. :) Thanks, Jordi -- Jordi Mallach Pérez -- Debian developer http://www.debian.org/ jordi sindominio net jordi debian org http://www.sindominio.net/ GnuPG public key information available at http://oskuro.net/~jordi/
