Font missing after uninstalling language #200

Closed jeremypw closed 5 months ago

jeremypw commented 5 months ago

What Happened?

After uninstalling a European language (e.g. German) the display of several apps and the wingpanel was corrupted - characters were replaced by "missing character" indicators (empty rectangle). The "Language support incomplete" infobar displayed. Completing the installation of language support fixed the issue. (Note confusing message "Installing missing language")

Steps to Reproduce

Open Settings and open the Language and Region plug Remove an unused language Note corrupt display and infobar Click on "Complete Installation" Note progress bar with confusing message in the context of removing a language.

Expected Behavior

Removing a language should not require adding back required packages (in this case a font package).

OS Version

8.x (Early Access)

Software Version

Latest release (I have run all updates)

Log Output

Adding debug code to the source produced the information "missing fonts-noto-core".  It appears font packages are being removed along with language packs.
