Installed fonts are not available for selection

[Piers Powlesland]

I have installed the following font from nerd fonts using gnome-fonts by double clicking the file and selecting install.

https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/blob/master/patched-fonts/FiraCode/Medium/complete/Fura%20Code%20Medium%20Nerd%20Font%20Complete%20Mono.otf

The font doesn't appear in gnome terminal custom font selector.

I'm running the following system

Linux admin2-ThinkPad-X1-Carbon-7th 5.3.0-40-generic #32~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 3 14:05:59 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And using gnome terminal 3.28.2

gnome-terminal lists the fonts that are monospace according to pango_font_family_is_monospace(). The font as well as Pango should be examined why this one isn't believed to be a monospace one.

That being said, you can still set this font using dconf-editor, by setting /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:<the_profile_id>/font.
