Sounds like this might solve #10505? |
I'd say it's a definite... maybe. Skia uses fontconfig internally on Linux so it may run into the same issue. I'm not immediately sure how to replicate the issue in question, so I can't really give a definitive answer. |

My latest push re-adds the fontconfig dependency to LibGfx. It is required after #10579 to query font hinting information, as Skia has no equivalent API to do this 😞 |

124-151: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winBundled/system fallback asymmetry between
get_fontandfor_each_typeface_with_family_name.
for_each_typeface_with_family_namefully shadows system fonts once any bundled typeface exists for a family
(Bundled fonts shadow system fonts of the same family name.). Butget_fontonly requires an exact style match from bundled before falling back to system fonts of the same family — so a family partially covered by bundled fonts can still resolve missing styles from an unrelated system font sharing that name, somethingfor_each_typeface_with_family_namewould never surface. SinceFontPlugin::compute_generic_font_nameusesfor_each_typeface_with_family_nameto score available weights per family, this mismatch could cause it to underestimate whatget_fontcan actually resolve.Please confirm this asymmetry is intentional; if not, consider aligning the two functions (e.g., have
get_fontalso fully shadow, or havefor_each_typeface_with_family_namealso enumerate the system fallback).🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

This provider resolves system fonts on demand through the Skia font manager instead of scanning font directories up front. Bundled fonts are loaded eagerly and shadow system fonts of the same family name. Typefaces whose resolved family name differs from the requested family are rejected, so fontconfig alias substitutions do not satisfy named family lookups and the existing CSS font fallback logic continues to be used. Nothing installs this provider yet.
Skia's font manager resolves system fonts through fontconfig. Load it before sandbox restrictions are installed, so fontconfig can read its configuration and rebuild stale font caches while filesystem access is still unrestricted. This matters most in the compositor, which otherwise first touches fontconfig while decoding display lists. Derive the landlock allowlist for font access from fontconfig's own font and cache directory lists. Since landlock cannot mediate file mode changes, reject them with an error rather than terminating the process, so that fontconfig degrades gracefully if it adjusts cache file modes after the sandbox is installed.
Processes install the Skia-backed system font provider by default. The old path-based provider remains available behind `--force-fontconfig`, which the test runner also uses for deterministic font selection. The fallback font directory list is now assembled per platform instead of being read from fontconfig. The direct fontconfig dependency remains: glyph rasterization queries it for per-font hinting configuration, and Skia's font manager resolves fonts through it.
A typeface serialized by family name may fail to resolve in the receiving process, for example when a font was uninstalled or the processes see different fontconfig configurations. Return a decode error instead of asserting, so a stale or malformed message cannot bring down the receiving process.
Previously, the compositor process loaded every bundled and system font into its font database at startup. Nothing in the process resolves fonts through the font database. Typefaces received over IPC are matched with Skia directly.

Load every face from a .ttc resource.
This branch loads only one typeface from each TTC. A TTC can contain multiple families and styles. The remaining bundled faces never enter m_bundled_typefaces.
Enumerate the validated TTC face count and call Typeface::try_load_from_resource(resource, ttc_index) for each face, as Libraries/LibGfx/Font/PathFontProvider.cpp does at Lines 65-75. Add a regression test with a multi-face TTC.
