Fonts and Language in Icecat

Fonts and Language in Icecat

[znavko]

Hello! I have some troubles in the second user account 'mom' in Guix System in Icecat browser.
It has ugly fonts for guix manual code. Here it is screen:
http://0x0.st/zf0K.png

My languages and fonts configs in Icecat are these: http://0x0.st/zf0N.png

I have copied fonts to mom account and its content is this:
$ ls /home/mom/.fonts/
'a_AvanteLt Light.ttf' 'Minion Pro Bold.ttf'
'Academy Old Regular.ttf' 'Myriad Pro Light Italic.ttf'
'Academy Regular.ttf' 'Myriad Pro Light Regular.ttf'
'a_FuturaRound Bold.ttf' pehlevi.ttf
'AvantGarde Regular.ttf' 'PF Monumenta Pro Regular.ttf'
'Century Gothic Regular.ttf' 'Pragmatica Bold.ttf'
'Century Schoolbook Regular.ttf' 'Pragmatica Cyrillic.ttf'
'FreeSet Regular.ttf' 'Pravda Regular.ttf'
'Izhitsa Regular.ttf' 'Tracia Regular.ttf'
'Lazurski Regular.ttf' 'Verdana Regular.ttf'
How to do that code displays well?

And also how to make Icecat menus are Russian?

The XDG ‘.local/fonts’ directory is preferred by upstream and 
probably more future-proof, although .fonts might still work.

Have you run ‘fc-cache -rv’ and restarted IceCat after 
installing fonts?

If /var/cache/fontconfig exists, delete it first[0].

You can download ‘language packs’ at

  https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnuzilla/60.7.0/langpacks/

then set ‘intl.locale.requested’ to ‘ru_RU’ in about:config 
(you may need to create this key).

Kind regards,

Dunno what my deal is today.  That should, of course, be 
.local/share/fonts.

Kind regards,

Thank you, Tobias!
I've changed to these fonts configurations and it is working: 0x0.st/zf0M.png

But Russian language pack does not make any change in my Icacat.
I have 'Icecat 60.6.1esr (64-bit)' and used 60.3.0/, 60.7.0/ directories from ftp gnuzilla. No one
langpack translates menus into Russian: http://0x0.st/zfdK.png

There is only these variables :

http://0x0.st/zfny.png

and starting with 'intl.locale' there is only 'intl.locale.matchOS' :

But I like your patience.
