Waybar icon and MNTIcons

I ran apt-get upgrade and the MNT icon where the launcher goes is now just an “M”. It appears the MNTIcons font described in the waybar CSS is gone off the system somehow.

How do I fix that? Is there a pro-forma CSS change to copy or an alternate package that has the font?

I think this might be a good hint. I’ll pursue it tomorrow. debian/rules: regenerate MNTIcons.ttf from source using fontforge (7de1188b) · Commits · Reform / MNT Reform Tools · GitLab

FTR: pretty sure I need reform-branding; I think I tried to install this, but couldn’t find it. If worse comes to worse, I’ll just install the deb manually.

Hello @ydaraishy and welcome to the forum! Sorry for the late reply, I saw your mail this morning and then forgot to follow up.

Yes, the font and the icons are part of the reform-branding package which ships /usr/share/fonts/truetype/MNTIcons.ttf.

The reform-branding package is distributed under a non-free license and is thus part of the non-free archive area: reform-branding - Debian Package Tracker

To install it, temporarily add the non-free repo to your apt sources.list. Do you need assistance with doing that?

Thank you for bringing this up, I should add this to reform-check.

Just to close the loop, I just downloaded and installed the deb manually, and I have the icon showing up normally again. :slight_smile:
