I have been using Sericea since beta and am excited to this immutable variant. It works out of the box on my device, haven’t any issues (especially major issues) since using it. But after the latest system upgrade through rpm-ostree update, I got an issue of Foot Terminal appearance. The font size is very small and the background color is changing to black color.
I rolled back to previous ostree deployment and this was the view of Foot Terminal
I haven’t touch the Foot configuration yet since the fresh installation of stable F38 installed on my laptop. And I’ve looked at the foot configuration (/etc/xdg/foot/foot.ini) between ostree deployments, there’s no changes on it.
For now, I change the foot configuration in my home folder (~/.config/foot/foot.ini). I just want to know, is this the issue with my installation or bug with Foot Terminal?
Foot upstream has recently changed the default theme. Twice, actually: pre-1.14 releases were using zenburn, 1.14 defaults to solarized-dark and 1.15 to starlight.
You can revert to any of the previous themes by adding include = /usr/share/foot/themes/{theme-name} to your foot.ini. Note that include only works in the main section of the config.
Another change that affected you was in the display DPI handilng. Pre-1.15 releases used to enable dpi-aware option which made font size dependent on the current screen size and resolution. It was disabled in 1.15.0 in favor of scaling and fractional scaling factor support. dpi-aware = yes in the config should bring back the previous font sizing logic (which was weird and unpredictable, IMO).
Hi, thanks for replying and explaining why the foot appearance changed after system upgrade. The previous foot config suits my laptop setup, so i change the foot.ini in my current Sericea installation:
dpi-aware = yes
include = /usr/share/foot/themes/solarized-dark
