integrate fc-config #1093

Open yangfl opened 6 years ago

yangfl commented 6 years ago

DDNet is now part of Debian packages http://packages.debian.org/sid/ddnet . I'd like to thank you all for your contributions.

Currently date includes two font files, which is not preferred by the Debian package guideline. With the default WenQuanYi font from the repo, the setting and editor logo are missing.

Also, hard-coded font name is not a good idea since users may want to have their own choices. Thus, I suggest to use fc-config to handle them.

Thank you very much for adding an official Debian package!

Since @Jupeyy looked into text rendering already, opinions? https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/pull/1081

yangfl commented 6 years ago

That still uses custom fonts, not system-provided one.

I know, sorry for confusing wording. I meant that @Jupeyy might want to look into this issue.

I'm against this. The game should contain exactly the font versions that we specify so we can control and test how it looks. If package maintainers want to use fonts from a repository instead of using the included ones, they should be able to do that without any changes to the client.

See also #6952 which added an index the different font files.
