Re: Pango-WARNING failed to choose a font

[Sid Kapoor <sidkapoor2000 gmail com>]

Hi William,

 

Did you set the environment properly ?

 

Try some steps as mentioned below:

 

1) export PANGO_RC_FILE=/lib/pango/pangorc

2) Give the path of your pango.modules file in pangorc

3) Check your pango.modules file. Is your pango module path properly mentioned in the pango.modules file ?

4) If not then generate a fresh pango.modules file by running a binary pango-querymodules.

5) Also check your pangox.aliases file. Is your new font mentioned in that file ?

 

Thanks,

Siddharth Kapoor

Try strace'ing to see what files pango is trying to access and go from there.
 There's not much else I can suggest.
