[SOLVED] Pango Upgrade Problem

kaismh · 2018-03-27 10:59:22

I am having a problem after updating to pango-1.42.0-1, GTK applications won't start including Firefox and Chrome.

The following error is displayed on the terminal
/usr/lib/libpangoft2-1.0.so.0: undefined symbol: FcWeightFromOpenTypeDouble

Downgrading to pango-1.40.14-2 solves the issue

Any tips on how to solve it

Thanks - unfortunately that rules out any hypothesis I had (the obvious first check was for a partial upgrade, but also checking whether this was related to other lib32-fontconfig issues recently posted on the forums, but you do have the fixed lib32-fontconfig version and it looks like pango was rebuilt at the same time too).

vltr · 2018-03-27 13:02:48

I have this same problem. For now, I have to use pango version 1.40.14-2 and harfbuzz[-icu] version 1.7.4-1 for everything to (seems to) work.

EDIT: I've been using fontconfig infinality from aur, with patches (cairo, freetype2 and fontconfig). So, if you're using one of those, that may be the issue with pango related to harfbuzz ...

Trilby's actually right, the problem here is a partial update. Your fontconfig package is too old. If you're using one from outside of the official repos like vltr, either switch back to the repo package or learn how to manage low level system libraries from the AUR (hint, you have to do it yourself, not rely on the maintainer).

Trilby · 2018-03-27 14:27:38

Scimmia, as much as I like hearing I'm right - I don't believe I was. Can you clarify. That log shows this upgrade:

[2018-03-27 12:51] [ALPM] upgraded lib32-fontconfig (2.12.6+5+g665584a-1 -> 2.13.0+10+g58f5285-1.1)

And that version number matches what I see in the repos:

That's lib32-fontconfig, the problem is fontconfig.

Trilby · 2018-03-27 14:31:34

Ah, thanks. I don't use multilib - I was under the (apparently false) impression that the lib32- versions of packages generally replaced not supplemented their non-lib32 counterparts.

In this case, I'd guess some infinality packages might be a likely cause.

kaismh · 2018-03-27 15:33:23

Thanks guys, the problem was with fontconfig-ubuntu, which I totally forgot I installed earlier.

:: fontconfig and fontconfig-ubuntu are in conflict. Remove fontconfig-ubuntu? [y/N] y

I reinstalled fontconfig, and all is great now.
