For years I've installed a bitmap font for my terminals, but since I upgraded to Focal (development branch) today, it no longer works.
The font is 'Dina', from here:
http://www.dcmembers.com/jibsen/download/61/?unapproved=504&moderation-hash=f1abb9d89caafa881dcfc05cd32372e7
I have always installed it using a script:
# install dina
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/fonts/Dina
cd /usr/share/fonts/Dina
sudo unzip ~/Downloads/Dina.zip
# enable bitmap fonts
sudo rm -f /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf
# rebuild the cache
fc-cache -f -v
# Set as default mono font
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name "Dina 8"
This has always worked in the past, through many versions of Ubuntu, including 19.10.
I installed Focal today, using `sudo do-release-upgrade -d`.
Now the above script does not make Dina visible in font selectors such as that produced by the Tweaks / Fonts / [Monospace Text] button. Terminals that were previously configured to use that font now display the "box of hex digits" characters (what are they called?)
I cannot run 'gnome-font-viewer' to check things out, presumably due to some variant of:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-font-viewer/+bug/1375819
(the window displays but immediately locks up.)
While trying to find a fix, I tried a few changes to the above script, which did not help:
* Unzip to "$HOME/.fonts" instead
* Trying other symlinks in the fonts config.d:
(
cd /etc/fonts/conf.d
sudo rm -f 70-no-bitmaps.conf
sudo ln -sf ../conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf
)
(tried with both 'yes-bitmaps' and 'force-bitmaps')
* fc-cache -r # "really" force cache re-creation
