Brackets: [Resolved][Arch Linux]Menu font from Brackets 1.11

[arthurflor23]

Prerequisites

• [ x ] Can you reproduce the problem with Debug -> Reload Without Extensions?
• [ x ] Did you perform a cursory search to see if your bug or enhancement is already reported?
• [ x ] Did you read the Troubleshooting guide?

Description

I upgraded to version 1.11 and I had some problems. First I had to execute this command for the brackets to open (only this to open):
sudo chmod 4755 /opt/brackets/chrome-sandbox

Second, when the brackets finally open:

and

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open the Brackets

Expected behavior: Menu font correct

Actual behavior: Menu font is square (missing?)

Versions

Release 1.11 build 1.11.0-17524 (release 86b5e2d4e) build timestamp: Wed Sep 20 2017 10:21:22 GMT+0000

OS: Arch Linux Kernel: x86_64 Linux 4.12.13-1-ARCH DE: KDE 5.38.0 / Plasma 5.10.5 WM: KWin GTK Theme: Breeze [GTK2/3] Icon Theme: Papirus Font: Noto Sans Regular

[nackd]

Same thing here. Also Arch Linux with a similar config, though I have the GTK font set to Oxygen-Sans.

@arthurflor Thanks for choosing Brackets and letting us know about this rendering issue 👍. As Arch Linux is not a platform where Brackets normally gets tested, can you please let us know the process involved in installing Brackets on Arch Linux?
Unless we actually debug this issue, can't comment on what's going wrong with the configuration.

[arthurflor23]

It's just the install command:
yaourt -S brackets-bin
More info from the package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/brackets-bin/

Can do installing error? I will check the package build

[arthurflor23]

Process: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=brackets-bin

[pwnfoo]

+1 can confirm this affects Arch Linux install. I tried installing most of the fonts referenced in src/styles/ and rebuilding the font cache but the issue persists.

[anthonytex]

Hello all :) Have you try with "brackets" package and not the "-bin" pre-compiled version?
After updating to 1.1, the -bin version didn't execute but it crashed generating a core dump with SIGABRT (signal-6). So because gdb didn't find any debug symbols, i've downloaded and edited brackets package to make a debug version ... but after installing it and launch... it just works: so nothing to debug. The problem with brackets-bin must be something like well some linked library or different dependency?..honestly no time to test as my wanted result was "make it work again" ;)
Hello @swmitra thanks for your interest on this: basically there are 2 packages of brackets in Arch Linux in Arch User (not official so) Repo. Arch package from this repo are build on the fly with official arch tool (makepkg) so in this case "the brackets-bin" is build by simply downloading your Debian package, extract binaries and pack them to an Arch package while "brackets" package is build with npn install and g++ by downloading your sources: the first version doesn't work. Keep up your good work :+1: on supporting the linux version

[arthurflor23]

The package brackets (without "-bin") doesn't install here. Results in compilation error.
But I'll go into more detail with this compilation error. Thanks!

[anthonytex]

Yes, a dep "libudev0-shim" must be installed you can install my compiled version https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzKigOTG5qLEMFIyWGU3R2g1N28
sudo pacman -U brackets-1.11-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

[swmitra]

@anthonytex Great work! You made my day. I love this community for the passion it brings in making a developers day. Sincerely hoping the trend continues 👍

[plascadeine]

Have the same problem in ubuntu, I have no idea what to do.

[swmitra]

@plascadeine Brackets is rigorously tested on Ubuntu and we have never noticed this kind of problem with the package posted officially. Are you using one of the deb package posted in GitHub releases for Brackets?

[plascadeine]

Yes I download witl link posted on brackets info on app, install deb package and see this but previous version works fine, without any problems

[arthurflor23]

@anthonytex Yea! thanks!
The problem was the "libudev0". The Brackets package caught libudev0 from AUR as dependence (here had compilation error). So I installed "libudev0-shim" before and works like a charm.

and

=)

[swmitra]

@arthurflor Thanks a lot for quick confirmation 👍 . If the reported problem is fixed to your satisfaction, please consider closing this issue.

[ycUygB1]

Installing libudev on Gentoo does not fix the problem.

The error persists! full log...

@hnaparst , You can try to reinstall brackets using command sudo dpkg -i <PATH_OF_DEB_FILE>, it will list the dependencies which failed(there would probably be 1 or 2). You can then install those dependencies, and then launching Brackets should work fine.

[pwnfoo]

@swmitra and others, thank you for supporting the Linux versions. You guys rock.

@anthonytex Thanks for the package. It just works :)

@saurabh95 Gentoo does not use dpkg. It installs all dependencies and
will not continue if one of them fails to install.

Using Ubuntu Budgie 17.10 and the problem persists.

[a4w]

Same Problem on Kali Linux 2.0 Sana using the latest Brackets Version
I tried changing the font and refreshing font cache but problem presists

[lbassuncao]

Please correct this BUG, wich makes Brackets useless therefore. This is the screenshot on Ubuntu 17.10.

This issue is only happening with the version 1.11 when Using Ubuntu 17.10. The version 1.10 it's working fine even on Ubuntu 17.10.

To fix the square fonts bug, I downloaded the package libpangoft2-1.0-0_1.40.5-1_amd64.deb in the debian repository and extract the libs "libpangoft2-1.0.so.0" and "libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.4000.5" in /opt/brackets.

Extracing pango files worked for me too

Works here as well, going to pinpoint the broken commit now. Should we report it to pango's devs?

So can I be the guy who explains how new they are to linux and ask for some more detailed instructions on @chsjr1996 's fix?

@1efty1337 Here you go:

1) Download the package from libpangoft2 package from here

2) Instead of opening it with Software Install, open it using Archive Manager and extract it. You will see two files. Again extract data.tar.xz and navigate to the folder usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu that you got after extracting.

3) Copy the two files in that folder to /opt/brackets. You might require root depending on how you've configured your system and restart Brackets if it is already running. Something like : sudo cp path/to/your/extracted/folder/* /opt/brackets/

@sachinkamath Thank you very much. I understand how easy it would have been to ignore such a simple question, and i appreciate the help!

[pwnfoo]

@1efty1337 Np! Feel free to ping if you're stuck and welcome to Linux! :)

@sachinkamath

Your method works great on Ubuntu 17.10 with Brackets 1.11.0-17524 amd64 deb taken from Brackets homepage.

Thanks!

@maicardi, I just expanded @chsjr1996's solution but you're very welcome. Glad I could help you :)

On Ubuntu 17.10 @chsjr1996's solution wasn't complete.

I moved the libpangoft shared object files to /opt/brackets/lib:

/opt/brackets$ ls lib/
libpangoft2-1.0.so.0  libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.4000.5

Then I ran the /opt/brackets/brackets script which specifically sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /opt/brackets/lib. This allows brackets to link to older libpangoft files.

Hi, @abargnesi, could you kindly explain to me what exactly you did? I don't quite understand the phrases:

I moved the libpangoft shared object files to /opt/brackets/lib:

/opt/brackets$ ls lib/
libpangoft2-1.0.so.0 libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.4000.5

I tried @1efty1337 's approach but it didn't work, then I tried you approach, made a file called lib in /opt/brackets and put the two files there, then ran the script you specified, it didn't work. Then I understood I have a 32-bit system, downloaded libpangoft2-1.0-0_1.40.12-1_i386.deb (which is the 32-bit version) and did the same, it didn't work. Then I tried to take your approach again, but soon realised I don't understand what you write.

Thx in advance
