[Arch Linux] Ubunto Mono font not working after KDE 6 upgrade #398

Closed mon0theist closed 3 months ago

mon0theist commented 3 months ago

I've been using Powerline on Arch with Ubuntu Mono for years and it's had no issues.

For some reason after the recent KDE 6 upgrade, the Ubuntu Mono font seems to no longer work, the symbols are missing so it looks like artifacts.

I have both the powerline and powerline-fonts-git packages installed as per the Arch Wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Powerline

Locale is also set to en_US.UTF-8 and has never changed

I can change the font to ttf-hack and it works, but then when I switch back to Ubuntu Mono I get the missing symbols again. So it seems like an issue with the Ubuntu Mono font specifically. I'm not sure what exactly about the KDE 6 upgrade would've broken it.

I was able to resolve by manually installing derivative font from the repo here.
