Installing a font from the font overview never completes.
Problem
On Fedora Rawhide, I started Fonts and was browsing through the fonts and realized that one font could be installed by clicking on the Install button. I clicked on that button, it changed to Installing and remained like that forever (60+ minutes). The application however remains fully responsive.
When I returned to the list of fonts again and selected the same font again, the button Install was available instead of Installed indicating that the font has not been installed.
Also, no authentication dialogue was displayed if the installation could only progress when authenticated.
Summary: The fonts cannot be installed although the Install button is there.
Versions
- gnome-font-viewer-43.0-1.fc38.x86_64
- gnome-shell-43.1-4.fc38.x86_64
Expected
If a font has the option to be installed, Fonts should be able to install it. Or, if fonts cannot be installed, the Install button should not be shown.
