I have updated redhat-fonts, should build fine now.

@Arsikk That would be nice! Thank you so much.

@zhxqian3 I could probably maintain redhat-fonts, as the likely best solution

zhxqian3 commented on 2026-01-10 12:10 (UTC)

@Arsikk I understand your point, and I agree that the method I mentioned was a bit inappropriate. My current approach is to modify the redhat-fonts PKGBUILD file before building it. Anyway, thanks for your timely response :)

@zhxqian3 SilentSDDM expects the fonts to be in /usr/share/fonts, and I don't really want to install it there in the package and pollute it. Not sure what's the best way to do this

Following the approach in the comment is a way to successfully build the redhat-fonts package within a chroot environment. However, as I mentioned previously, the maintainer of that package no longer seems to be supporting it. Given this, would it be appropriate for the sddm-silent-theme package to directly use the fonts from the SilentSDDM repository instead?

I ran the following steps but was unable to build the font:

  1. git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/redhat-fonts.git

  2. cd redhat-fonts

  3. pkgctl build

I could package the fonts with the theme like upstream

zhxqian3 commented on 2026-01-10 09:02 (UTC)

I only found content in this file:

redhat-fonts-4.1.0-1-x86_64-package.log

@zhxqian3 what's the build error?
