Hi,

We (Arch Linux) are experiencing a bug that must be related to this commit.

The complete bug report is available here [0].

Short version is: since IcedTea 2.5.0, some Java app with GUI do not display texts any more. Building our package with `--enable-infinality=no` circumvents the issue.

FYI, the complete build source is available here [1] (infinality disable not actually displayed on this source).

Any idea if this **is** a bug or maybe just a configuration or dependency issue?

Thanks,

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

what is "broken"?

[Ivan Borzenkov (ivan1986)]

when switch to openjdk6 or sun java - fonts is normal

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

reproduced by installing 'jmapviewer' from the archive on Ubuntu desktop.

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

seen with both trusty and utopic.

disabling the local patches

  debian/patches/jdk-freetypeScaler-crash.diff
  debian/patches/jdk-bold-swing-fonts.patch

doesn't fix it.

Not seen with openjdk-8 in utopic

[Classpath-apriori (classpath-apriori)]

With infinality-patched libs installed, the previous Archlinux build with infinality-support included was working fine for me. Did the bug just hit folks who did not have infinality font rendering installed?

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package openjdk-7 - 7u60-2.5.0-2ubuntu1

---------------
openjdk-7 (7u60-2.5.0-2ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian; remaining changes:
    - Build using a different .orig.tar.gz.
    - Add the IcedTea Sound tarball as an uuencoded file.
    - debian/generate-debian-orig.sh: Rename the debian checkout.

openjdk-7 (7u60-2.5.0-2) unstable; urgency=high

  * Refresh KFreeBSD patches (Steven Chamberlain). Closes: #754214.
  * Backport S7179339, xrender pipeline creates graphics corruption.
    (Matthias Bläsing). LP: #1101348.
  * Configure with --disable-infinality. Closes: #754343. LP: #1338897.

[Andrew John Hughes (ahughes)]

It sounds likely. I don't think there's a bug here, as there's already the option to disable infinality. I may make it default to being off though.
