In the latest release of terminus-font-4.46, all 8bit encodings stopped being installed by default. This is also mentioned in the release notes: - The X11 8-bit code pages are not installed by default. I know I live in the ancient times, but I'd like my iso-8859-2 encoded fonts back. I tried to apply this to the ebuild, and it appears to be working. It looks like pcf-unicode-only should still work and purge everything non-unicode, just like it used to work. Please consider applying this, thanks ;-) --- terminus-font-4.46.ebuild 2018-07-11 23:21:24.687628732 +0200 +++ terminus-font-4.46-r1.ebuild 2018-07-11 23:14:00.274276077 +0200 @@ -71,7 +71,7 @@ src_install() { local args=( $(usex psf 'install-psf install-psf-vgaw install-psf-ref' '') - $(usex pcf 'install-pcf' '') + $(usex pcf 'install-pcf install-pcf-8bit' '') ) # Set the CHECKDIR to a dummy location so we always get the same set of # files installed regardless of what is in / or ROOT or wherever.
This is still a problem in version 4.48-r2. Disabling USE flag pcf-unicode-only does not install the pcf fonts for 8-bit code pages. I applied the following patch to fix it. --- terminus-font-4.48-r2.ebuild.orig 2020-11-06 14:27:56.105497567 +0000 +++ terminus-font-4.48-r2.ebuild 2020-11-06 14:28:40.848739519 +0000 @@ -64,7 +64,8 @@ src_compile() { local args=( $(usex psf 'psf psf-vgaw' '') - $(usex pcf 'pcf pcf-8bit' '') + $(usex pcf 'pcf' '') + $(usex pcf-unicode-only '' 'pcf-8bit') ) [[ ${#args[@]} -gt 0 ]] && emake "${args[@]}" @@ -108,6 +109,7 @@ local args=( $(usex psf 'install-psf install-psf-vgaw install-psf-ref' '') $(usex pcf 'install-pcf' '') + $(usex pcf-unicode-only '' 'install-pcf-8bit') ) # Set the CHECKDIR to a dummy location so we always get the same set of # files installed regardless of what is in / or ROOT or wherever.
Correction: the 8-bit compile and install arguments should be conditional on USE=pcf as well as USE=-pcf-unicode-only --- terminus-font-4.48-r2.ebuild.orig 2020-11-09 08:32:23.682929773 +0000 +++ terminus-font-4.48-r2.ebuild 2020-11-09 08:42:18.612881874 +0000 @@ -64,7 +64,8 @@ src_compile() { local args=( $(usex psf 'psf psf-vgaw' '') - $(usex pcf 'pcf pcf-8bit' '') + $(usex pcf 'pcf' '') + $(use pcf && usex pcf-unicode-only '' 'pcf-8bit') ) [[ ${#args[@]} -gt 0 ]] && emake "${args[@]}" @@ -108,6 +109,7 @@ local args=( $(usex psf 'install-psf install-psf-vgaw install-psf-ref' '') $(usex pcf 'install-pcf' '') + $(use pcf && usex pcf-unicode-only '' 'install-pcf-8bit') ) # Set the CHECKDIR to a dummy location so we always get the same set of # files installed regardless of what is in / or ROOT or wherever.
Is there still any interest in this?
It would still be nice to have this fixed, yes.

In short: if you want Unicode PCFs set USE=pcf-unicode (ebuild default), if you want 8-bit ones set USE=pcf-8bit (off by default).
