Hi,

For whoever cares, we noticed on CentOS / RHEL 8 that the latest releases of TVPaint show with no text.

This is due to a system font issue, there are some zero-byte font files installed by default:

Code: Select all

/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free/FreeSans.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free/FreeSansBold.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free/FreeSansBoldOblique.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free/FreeSansOblique.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free/FreeSerif.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free/FreeSerifBold.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free/FreeSerifBoldItalic.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free/FreeSerifItalic.ttf

To fix this, please install this package : https://centos.pkgs.org/8/centos-appstr ... h.rpm.html
