Description
The dependency on servo-fontconfig causes issues because it was built with an earlier version of fontconfig
this tends to mess up with most linux systems causing runtime errors of the following:
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", line 5: unknown element "its:rules"
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", line 6: unknown element "its:translateRule"
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", line 6: invalid attribute 'translate'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", line 6: invalid attribute 'selector'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", line 7: invalid attribute 'xmlns:its'
Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", line 7: invalid attribute 'version'
......
I changes the original toml file to the following replacing servo-fontconfig to fontconfig, now it runs properly.
THIS FILE IS AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED BY CARGO
When uploading crates to the registry Cargo will automatically
"normalize" Cargo.toml files for maximal compatibility
with all versions of Cargo and also rewrite path dependencies
to registry (e.g., crates.io) dependencies
If you believe there's an error in this file please file an
issue against the rust-lang/cargo repository. If you're
editing this file be aware that the upstream Cargo.toml
will likely look very different (and much more reasonable)
