Because the process is allowed to run on various locales. I know running processes on various locales on the desktop is rare case. but this fix itself is to help that rare case. otherwise no one needs to set even FC_LANG nor .fonts.conf. it should just works. aside from that, as Raimund pointed out, even though it depends on their configurations installed on the system, one may needs to include the line to read the system's fonts.conf and override the default configuration, particularly one isn't sure if they have the language-specific rules prior to 50-user.conf, and want to expect to work perfectly. I don't think relying on the environment variables is the best solution, rather think it's the old fashion. it may prevents to change the configuration on the fly too. though it's easy to try ;) Given that we want to do it in fonts.conf, we may need a hook to apply it as the top priority. > > -- > keith.packard@xxxxxxxxx -- Akira TAGOH _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
