Glyphs not rendering correctly

[scrouthtv]

I'm running Linux archlinux 5.4.13-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri, 17 Jan 2020 23:09:54 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux and

ncpamixer v1.3
Build type: release
Build date: 2020-01-20 16:59

The three fonts shown are Monofur, Monaco and Hermit. As you can see, instead of the little symbol() the ~Y is displayed. Also the slider is not displayed as it should be, but instead there is a VH:

With some other fonts the glyphs are rendered correctly, but since Hermit is the one I mainly use I'd like to know whether it's possible to fix this in some way?

Humm strange, could you try to compile it with USE_WIDE=1 ?

[scrouthtv]

I didn't compile it myself, but installed the AUR version. I guess you want me to append the USE_WIDE=1 to the make command line. The issue persists:

What I did:

 $ make USE_WIDE=1
 $ build/ncpamixer --version
ncpamixer git v1.3.3-1-g158dc0d

got similar results myself if i launched with: LANG=C ./build/ncpamixer

[c0r73x]

That would make sense i guess, you probably want to run utf-8 🤔

[scrouthtv]

Oh well. Didn't know. When launching with LANG=en_US.UTF-8 it works..

[scrouthtv]

Can someone help me on how I can fix this?

# cat /etc/locale.conf
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
# localectl
System Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8
echo $LANG
C

I even have a line export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 in my zshrc but the lang is still C.

[c0r73x]

Humm did you forget to run locale-gen maybe?

[scrouthtv]

I (re-) ran locale-gen, the output said there already was some file for en_US.UTF-8.

After testing my problem I set the language using localectl which didn't apply instantly, but after a reboot everything is working fine I guess I never really set the language or this one boot was broken. (Or could a kernel upgrade possibly break this? They tend to break a lot of things for me)

setting LC_ALL worked for me
