[SOLVED] Cannot start Plasma session after upgrading harfbuzz

It depends on what you have installed -- if you don't have the lib32- packages installed already, then there's no point installing them simply to replace freetype2-infinality with freetype2.

Pacman will tell you exactly what is blocking the transaction if simply replacing freetype2-infinality with freetype2 doesn't work.

All package i say to "remove" are installed:

otf-cantarell-ib t1-urw-fonts-ib ttf-dejavu-ib ttf-noto-fonts-ib
cairo-infinality-ultimate fontconfig-infinality-ultimate freetype2-infinality-ultimate
lib32-cairo-infinality-ultimate lib32-fontconfig-infinality-ultimate lib32-freetype2-infinality-ultimate

Replace them with the supported versions...

I have to agree the font rendering isn't quite the same as Infinality so far. I still do need to configure the fontconfig, but they're already much better looking than they used to be.

digitalone Can you maybe upload these files somewhere . I removed infinality completely with all config files.

The repository is still online with all the config files and options - use the menu to choose the appropriate architecture. e.g. for x86_64 the config files are all in fontconfig-infinality-ultimate-2.11.95-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz.

EDIT: I've just found that they are in the AUR - and hosted by github

Ok. I hope
"sudo pacman -S --asdeep lib32-freetype2 lib32-cairo lib32-fontconfig freetype2 cairo fontconfig noto-fonts ttf-dejavu cantarell-fonts gsfonts"
is the correct method.

But I need also
fontconfig-infinality-ultimate-2.11.95-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
?

Simona70, all the information you need to dig yourself out of this hole is readily available to you, stop being a help vampire.

Closing.
