Description Priit Laes (IRC: plaes) 2010-02-10 11:41:50 UTC

Since rrdtool-1.4 uses pango for font rendering it also seems to require truetype fonts to be installed, otherwise one can see "blocks" instead of text on the graphs:
[snip]
Pango-WARNING **: failed to choose a font, expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderFc', script='latin
[/snip]

It seems to search fonts from /usr/share/fonts directory (which does not exist, unless some fonts are installed).

ewarn "Note: rrdtool-1.3.x doesn't have any default font bundled. Thus if you've"
ewarn "upgraded from rrdtool-1.2.x and don't have any font installed to make"
ewarn "lables visible, please, install some font, e.g. media-fonts/dejavu."
