My XFE got broken fonts after update fontconfig package to 2.11.94-1 version:

Downgrading to 2.11.1-2 it get fixed:

pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/fontconfig-2.11.1-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

Is it a bug or only some missing font?

I tested in virtualbox guest and host, and got same result.

Thanks in advance,

Semeion

With the font config update my xfe fonts also got weird... So i went to "edit -> preferences -> fonts" and i realized that the fonts i had choosen had an "[Unknown]", so i choosed the fonts again and it solved my issue.

Hope it helps yours.

Ok, thank you for feedback. I tried it, but all fonts have [unknown].

What font do you choosed?

How can i set to work with Dejavu for example?
