The new preferred location is in <code>$XDG_DATA_HOME/fonts</code>, which for most users will resolve to <code>~/.local/share/fonts</code><ref>https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2014-July/005270.html</ref> | The new preferred location is in <code>$XDG_DATA_HOME/fonts</code>, which for most users will resolve to <code>~/.local/share/fonts</code><ref>https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2014-July/005270.html</ref> | ||
=== Flatpak applications can't find system fonts === | |||
Enable <code>fontDir</code> in your NixOS configuration: | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang="nix"> | |||
fonts.fontDir.enable = true; | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
Then, create a symlink in <code>XDG_DATA_HOME/fonts</code> ponting to <code>/run/current-system/sw/share/X11/fonts</code>, e. g. | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang="console"> | |||
$ ln -s /run/current-system/sw/share/X11/fonts ~/.local/share/fonts | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
Finally, either using the Flatpak CLI or Flatseal make <code>All system files</code> or equivalently <code>filesystem=host</code> available to your application. | |||
