Can't seem to get Debian 10 to use -l to summon matrix.fnt option in console #123

Describe the bug Cmatrix does not output anything on Debian Server (console only system).

To Reproduce $ sudo apt install cmatrix $ cmatrix -l NO OUTPUT [q] Cannot find default font $setfont matrix Cannot find default font

Expected behavior Cmatrix should run without error and output "the matrix", perhaps even with -a -b for ultimate shtoile.

Screenshots Literally a black screen.

Additional context This is running on a console only system, I prefer to have one of my servers display cmatrix while "showing off" and being proud of my work, unfortunately this one instance was less glamorous as cmatrix was inactive...

Thanks for your help, love this neat little program!

This is strange. Thanks for your time and reporting the bug. Can you try using v2? I will investigate and get back :)

Hallo,

What do you mean by using V2? Has there been a new release in the standard Debian apt repositories? I haven't tested Bullseye yet either. I'll start testing again soon.

Thanks,

I think I did mail the person who was publishing the debian files to apt repositories. But I don't know if it's live yet, a version 2 for the source (unpackaged) code is available in the GitHub releases of the this repository. Can you try that release or better would be if you can try compiling via the master branch.
