Missing grub-mkfont

Galster-dev opened this issue ยท 7 comments

Hello! In README you ask to create an issue if grub-mkfont (or grub2-mkfont) is missing on my system. So here I am.
grub-mkfont only comes with truetype USE flag in portage (Gentoo)

Great project btw

Thank you! That is good to know, would you say that not using the truetype flag is something relatively unusual?

I use hardend profile and did not have that flag enabled by default. I'll check other profiles when I get home and report here

Seems like all desktop subprofiles have truetype enabled (/var/db/repos/profiles/targets/desktop/make.defaults)

I see, for your case, it seems that it should be easy to get the command (and thus be able to use matter) by installing the packages of the truetype flag: https://packages.gentoo.org/useflags/truetype

If that's true then I think we can close this issue.

Yeah, that was quite obvious and is exactly what I did. Just letting you know for next issues

Oh yeah forgot to tell - you don't have to reemerge all packages with truetype USE flag. I enabled it specifically for sys-boot/grub and everything works fine!

Thank you!
